The legend of zelda: skyward sword would be on its way to nintendo switch

Nintendo has a habit of porting older games to the Switch, but so far, those first-class ports have been mostly limited to Wii U games. That could change, as Nintendo may be planning to bring The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword to the Switch.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword on the way to Switch

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was the last Zelda game for the Wii, and the last mainline game before Breath of the Wild. Apparently, the Skyward Sword port was hinted at by series producer Eiji Aonuma during a Zelda concert in Osaka last night. There has been no official confirmation yet, but a hint of the kind that has been in front of Zelda since Ocarina of Time is certainly intriguing.

Skyward Sword is one of the most controversial games in the Zelda franchise. Although he was praised by critics, his reliance on motion controls was definitely the source of contention among Zelda fans. However, once you got used to those motion controls, Skyward Sword established itself as another solid entry in the series. One has to wonder if Nintendo would keep a similar control scheme or go back to a more traditional one to move Skyward Sword to the Switch. While the Switch's Joy-Con controllers still support motion controls, it's not really the main focus that was on the original Wii.

Obviously, a hint isn't exactly the confirmation we want, so don't get your hopes up for Skyward Sword on Switch just yet. Would you like to see the arrival of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword to the latest Nintendo console? Did you play it at the time on Wii?
