Updating the classic Game Boy "Zelda IV" from 1993 was a great idea. The modernisation on the Switch looks, sounds and plays beautifully, although it stutters a little in places. The only major downside is that the game doesn't last very long. I went in knowing this, and still thoroughly enjoyed playing - but felt it would've been better as a £20 game than a £50 game.
