@famardy skyward sword, i had always heard get shit on for the motion controls. i thought they were actually pretty fantastic and used well. needing to swing in a particular direction to hit any weak spots definitely added to the combat. it takes a bit of finesse, but turns out alright.
it also has some some of the best music in the series with the very first actual orchestra used in a zelda game, and i like the characters a lot too.
minish cap was limited by the amount of buttons on the GBA, swapping in between stuff got really annoying. i also really did not care for the whole kinstone thing. some of the bosses were a little frustrating and i also ran into times where i'd get sniped by offscreen enemies.
