Before Breath of the Wild shook up the Legend of Zelda franchise, there was Skyward Sword. The Wii game, which focused heavily on motion controls, is perhaps one of the most divisive entries in the series history, with some lauding its storytelling and others hating its frequent interruptions. Regardless, fans have been requesting a HD port for a while, and this latest rumor suggests their wish may be granted soon.

The Nerd Mag reports that during a recent Zelda concert performance at the Nintendo Live event in Osaka, Japan, series producer Eiji Aonuma took to the stage and said I know what youre waiting for Skyward Sword for Switch. Right?

Backing up the report are multiple twitter updates from those who were in attendance, each mentioning the game heading to Switch.

Thanks to the games heavy reliance on motion controls, it does make some sense that Skyward Sword skipped the HD treatment on Wii U the original Wii controllers were optional with that system, after all. With the both of the Switch Joy-Con already featuring improved motion sensors, however, itd make a natural fit for a remaster.

The only Zelda I've never played, but it was because it seemed too corridor-y and too hold your hand'y

The game could use a straight up remake tbh. Either remodel it in the vein of previous Zeldas or go all in on the "metroidvania" thing they were trying for. The weird half-assed design was just not fun imo.

I hope they remake it and make it playable with the controller. The novelty was cool as a kid.

It would be an amazing game with redesigned controls

Just remake it without motion controls. It wasn't fun. I stopped playing after the first dungeon.

Skyward Sword was eh. I hated the handholding, the overworld was so bland, and doing the stupid trials for the triforce parts 3 times was so dumb. The only good thing about Skyward Sword is that combat is actually really fun

Never played it and I would be interested but only if they changed the motion controls. But Nintendo seems to still be pushing them in games so I won't hold my breath.

This is the last console Zelda game I have left. Biggest reason I haven't played it is because it seems long and not as good as the others. Portable version could change that.

It really depends how they figure out the controls though. I wouldn't rule it out being docked/tabletop only lol.
