Ultimately, this games fall way short, plagued with bad control schemes and touch screen gimmicks; it doesn`t holds up as nearly as good as the previous titles. Everything in the game is made harder with the finicky touch controls, as its not that responsive some times, which can lead to stupid deaths - and don`t even get me started on the stupid blow on the mic thing; it`s an interesting idea, I`ll give that, as it utilizes all the console has to offer, but in practice it does not work as good as the devs wanted it to.

The game has some nice moments, and I especially liked the sound track and how it evolves and goes deeper as you, for example, speed up on your train in the overworld map or climb the endless steps of the Tower of Spirits and I`m a huge fan of the synnergy and relationship of this Link and Zelda, as it brings a lot of charm to the story, but at the end of the day, its buried underneath a lot of gimmicks and things that do not work that well.
