Similar to the original 8-bit version, but definitely newer and better!

Like the original Zelda??? Give this one a try! The basics are the same... using maps, getting rupees, buying items, beating bosses, etc. And while the basics are the same, the plot is thicker, the graphics better, and it is more interactive because it is made for the Nintendo Wii!! Plus there is a twist... you get to ride a horse or even turn into a wolf.

Never played Zelda before?? Don't worry, it is a basic storyline about being a hero and saving the princess, Zelda, and the world. As the character, Link, you will travel through numerous mystical lands to gain knowledge, and items, that will help you in your quest. You will also meet other interesting characters, such as Midna, who will aid you along the way.

Overall... the plot is easy enough for some kids to understand, but detailed enough to keep adults involved and intrigued. There is moderate fighting, but doesn't have a bunch of hard to learn maneuvers... especially being on the Wii where a flick of the wrist could possibly destroy an entire gang of enemies. For about fifty dollars or less, this game will provide people of young and old hours of entertainment and could even connect an older Nintendo crowd to the newer!
