Skyward Sword H.D is a Switch port of the original Zelda Skyward Sword for the WII which was released in 2011. To begin, you can choose motion or regular controls that are really smooth and quite easy to learn. Like many Zelda games, you can play them in any order since the timeline is really ambiguous and not easy to follow.
