The Bottom Line:
"Rent it first"
O.k so i get this game thinking it's going to be another awesome Zelda game. Wrong! I have been playing this game for a whole week now and i still can't get past the very opening in Link's village. In order to progress it's mandatory that you catch two fish. this wouldn't be so bad if the fishing system wasn't completely broken. in order to catch fish you have to wait for the bobber to sink showing there's a fish on the line then flick the remote up to hook it, then slowly move the remote up to reel it in. The problem is that it's so sensitive half the time the bobber flies out of the water when you flick it. Also there's no way to tell how close you are to getting a fish hooked so you can gauge when and how hard to pull back the remote so getting fish is just a random guessing game. Worst part is that this is not the only time you will have to fish. I have the guide but even following it's directions to the letter I haven't been able to catch the stupid fish in a whole week! I will definitely be selling it to get money toward another game. If however you do decide to try it make sure you rent it or check it out from the library first. That way if you get utterly stonewalled by the fishing you won't have wasted your money like me.

    A gold Wii remote, a soundtrack CD and the biggest Wii release of the year. Too bad the shiny stuff screws with my camera.

    This comercial is hillarious! This is the original Super Famicon comercial that was shown in Japan to promote the original Ledgend Of Zelda Game. Enjoy!
