Skyward Sword is the prequel to all of the other games in The Legend of Zelda series, taking place long before the events of any of the other games. It originally launched for the Wii in 2011 but has recently been re-released as Skyward Sword HD for the Nintendo Switch, featuring high-definition graphics, a higher frame rate, various quality of life improvements, and some changes to the gameplay. For example, while the original forced players to use the motion controls of the Wii throughout the game, you can now choose between motion controls or standard button controls.
