Skyward Sword was a weird one for me. The motion controls drove me nuts almost all the time, except when they didn’t and I was having a blast. Unfortunately, that wasn’t super often, and when I finally did get into a groove, it was the very end of the game. The final boss felt really good. But then it was over.

The fourth dungeon is also one of my favorite in the series and the story has one of my favorite Zeldas (the character) in the series, too. But at the same time, there were also large stretches I hated. So many ups and downs for me.
