A few years ago I watched my boyfriend play Skyward Sword on his old Nintendo Wii and it was a tedious bore because of the robot lady. But in Skyward Sword HD, Nintendo has thrown her in the trash where she belongs. I love this game!

What is your favorite Legend of I Farted game?
Legend of I Farted: Wind Waker
Link to the Past is the best one.
The legend of princess fart
The Ocarina of Toots
Definitely his awesome skill at making a harp sound like a guitar so he could play Master Exploder.
That Chris Farley bit had so much extra detail holy crap.
Sadly, that is not how things turned out for him.
Right?? Seeing that made my morning 😁
that mipha's grace was so real I chocked on butter
Ahh nostalgic af
no shit
The comedy edits in this were extra juicy. Compliments to the chef 👌🏻
agreed
Perfection. I had to go back for seconds.
They’re why I keep coming back
That Chris Farley one was amazing, one their all time best.
"Dee is a bird" joke is 👌👌👌👌
Oh man, the "I farted" bit takes me back. That was the height of comedy back when Ocarina of Time came out.
...it still is.
“i am a grown man i will not laugh at far joke”
“i farted”
*intense wheeeezing*
Omg that lip sync for your life section had me snort-chuckle-screaming! This entire video was a million chef kisses and hilarious from start to finish, I’m glad to see you guys back on the tracks and killing it!
My man is a master editor man. Never fails to find the perfect cutaway.
Tom Hanks with his motion controller 😂
Samuel L Jackson talking to Fi 😆😂
Yea how does he think up these man, he’s like an editing savant
@@Towkeeyoh Truly. It always feels like he remembers everything he's ever seen at all moments, and is always ready with the perfect reference or joke.
"I don't remember asking you a gad, daam thiing!" (while that blasted flash-noise grates in the back)
I thought "My Dude" was Link's best name. But I gotta say, that ending montage was freaking incredible
Using "Slave" was a fun experience.
I want to do a playthrough using "You fool."
@@veronicapyle Or "Seriously?" so everyone sounds confused
I think it’s funniest when Link is “Asshole”… “Hey, Asshole!”
I laughed waaaaay too hard at that ending bit
"There are dozens of us. DOZENS!"
I just fell even more in love with your guys videos for adding that Arrested development reference. Love these!
Never change Matt. I too like motion controls! My favorite is probably Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition.
Shooters in general are great on Wii with motion controls + analog stick for movement. It's like a mouse + a controller. But even more natural.
Re4 is almost made perfectly for motion control
re4 wii edition was a motion control gift we didn't deserve
Analog triggers + good gyro >>>>>> everything else
I just started playing the Metroid Prime trilogy for the first time and the aiming in that game is really good thanks to the wii remote.
It's a sign of how good your overall content is every single time that I would watch an entire video featuring a game I have no interest in playing myself.
Same man
@@Thewalkinggamergaming Same. The original game is SO BAD, I literally quit before the first dungeon and I have played every Zelda. This video is the most enjoyment I will ever get out of it, besides Nintendo being forced to make Breath of the Wild EXTRA GOOD.
@@mrrodriguezHLP button and stick controls are very nice. First half the game I used motion controls and the Gyroscope gets out of wack most of the time. Last half of the game was a lot more fun with button controls and Ghirahim is a lot less annoying
@@mrrodriguezHLP The original game is really good, one of my favourite Zelda games, and I've played them all. But it does have a lot of quality of life problems and annoyances that I'm really really glad are fixed in the Switch version.
Never had any problems with the motion controls on either the Wii or Switch though, I love the motion controls. So I can sew how it's a problem for people that didn't like them back on the Wii.
@@mrrodriguezHLP I never played Skyward Sword, what made it bad? It looks really cool and the dungeons seem solid
You guys have literally some of the best voices I have ever heard. When you two laugh it actually makes me experience happiness.
Manic laughter in response to not catching the bug was the best best part by far 😂
Saying the character design is both "charming" and "alarming" is so accurate lol
Not gonna get Skyward Sword HD until Jiminny Fowlen plays it on TV. He’s where I get all my gamer newz.
I swear all the cut-away clips are always on-point.
That close up of Dee with the "you got a bird feather" was savage, lmao.
That final montage of the characters saying “I farted” is too good, lol
It was so good I farted.
Never expected somethung so wholesome on yt. Since he's such a fan of Motion Controls you should try and hunt down a copy of Red Steel 2. I'd be interested what you 2 have to say about it.
Yes!!!
Omg Red Steel 2 was everything I wanted in a videogame before VR came out. Wish we could get a Switch version or sequel...but I think it was a huge flop
I loved Red Steel 2!
I don’t know if they set up the Wii’s sensor bar properly or now as the game actually uses that to cancel drift but personally I’ve had a great time with the wii version. I’m fine with motion controls as long as it is an optional thing. VR and casual switch titles are where heavy motion controls are now I guess.
Damn red steal 2 was so much of a banger !
the more I enjoy this channel the more I realize that it all hinges on these 2 to continue canoodling
Well then, you'll be happy to know this is aging quite well
The bird feathers on Dee was such a great fun detail.
OMG this was one of the funniest videos you guys have done. The script blended so well with your excellent-chosen b roll videos. This was one of the few UA-cam videos I actually replayed immediately to watch again.
Amazing omg the SD card actually being deep-fried is the commitment to the bit that adds that little extra something something
Hands down one of your best videos to date. I could not breathe from laughing the entire time
Lmfao the cawcaw when it zoomed in on Dee's face was absolutely perfect. Your comedy mixed with the reviews are so amazing Holy shit. 😂😂😂
The editing on this one is absolutely insane!! I died at the Ru Paul/Tenacious D reference, truly amazing
wow, Master Exploder in a Zelda review? didn’t think y’all could get better than you were, but here we are 🙌🔥🍻
*chef kiss*
Yeah, that was really unexpected, yet awesome!
Perfection!
I forget which video it was but there's a solid Wonderboy homage buried somewhere on this channel as well in case you haven't seen it.
Okay, so I assumed it was a cut/editing trick when she dropped that SD-card into the fryer; but that cleaver-clip later on proved me DEAD WRONG 😂
I hope that was a faulty/useless memory card at the very least, but still; that’s dedication 👏🏻
ya gotta commit to the bit
Wasn't a micro-sd so I'm assuming it was old... or something Shelby wanted to make sure no one would ever see
Pretty sure it was an adapter for a micro sdcard
@@AxxLAfriku I have no idea what the hell you’re talking about; but at-least you’ve committed to your bit too. 6 years is a long time 😅
This channel seems to just keep getting better and better, with no sign of declining.
The use of the ornamental skull when talking about how the game "forgets" that you picked up items before was very clever lol
I really appreciate the usage of Tenacious D in this channel
Glad you guys managed to finish this one! hope you have a great day
The best motion control implementation that I've played is Splatoon 2. It's shockingly on point. Skyward Sword HD is so, so much better than the original, but it's still pretty janky in some spots.
I love how they actually capped the resolution to 480p incredible job Matt and Shelby!
The Tommy Boy scene with the HUD is why I subscribe. This channel really has a knack for combining some of my favorite things and making it hilarious. You two are a great team.
I never knew this channel existed and it's such a genius concept. Bravo!
Also I'm sure my girlfriend can relate to your Zelda exhaustion/annoyance. I'm obsessed with LoZ
That Chris Farley edit was God tier. You're my hero, Matt❤️.
wow can i say this is definitely one of your top tier videos. this made me smile so much! you guys are amazing keep up the good content!
Having Dee represent the Bird Feather was top tier meta humor
Delightful, the editing on this one was above average, fantastic selection of clips
I am so happy I found this channel when you two first started. I knew you two would become successful on UA-cam.
Okay, the editing went SO HARD, holy shit. Too good, you get seventeen chef's kisses
As far as the non-Motion controls of Skyward Sword: I wish they would have changed, " hold LB to look around using R stick" to " Hold LB to use the Sword with R stick". I can't tell you how many times I've tried to turn the camera, only to pull out my sword! Ugh! It's frustrating! I refuse to even try the motion controls; I have bad memories of using the Power Glove as a child!
Yep the joycon controls feel gimmicky.
In the tree cutting game I put my procontroller flat and treat the dpad like a joystick I hold with my thumb and pointer finger.
And switching between zR side weapons is really difficult. I wish I could just pause and select an item, like in Ocarina or Windwaker.
Or the game would pause while you were selecting.
@@lh9591just emulate the wii version and bump up the resolution, then use whatever controls you want
My new channel I have the switch version, and it has the options for both motion control and pro controller.
What I’m saying is the non motion control option on pro controller doesn’t change how gimmicky the controls are.
I think I did a bad job wording it
@@yourmum69_420
Emulating Skyward Sword is hell lmao. Emulating literally any other Zelda game is genuinely really fun, but with Skyward Sword? You can't get past certain points in the game unless you use actual motion controls, or manually map individual gyro movements onto the buttons of your controller, which makes for a borderline unplayable experience.
Just get the remaster, since it's better than emulated SS in nearly every single way
@@SlowWinterNuts you can use a thumbpad as a virtual joystick to control the motion gyro
So many godly television clip choices/references (amazing editing from Matt), plus perfect commentary from Shelby. I lost it at Fi being C-3P0's drag persona, not to mention the 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' edit, my god.
I'm always in awe of the editing effort that goes into these videos.
Maybe someday I'll end up going through Skyward Sword myself now that the remaster exists. The backtracking of the last third of the game and the constant show-and-tell day stopping certainly put me off of doing anything more than watching Chuggaaconroy play through the game.
I don't get why Skyward Sword is so hated, I think the games are amazing even though it has some wonky controls still has one of the best stories, boss fights, music and even more
Because out of the Zelda games it is the worst one.
Controls make up most of the fun or viability of a game and that at least for me personally makes it unplayable.
However if anyone finds fun with it go on :D
@@FNCMontragor sir please, the worst one is Zelda 2
@@FNCMontragor Idk it being the worst Zelda game is something I definitely do not agree with but thats your opinion. Also the controls were not unplayable at least for me. Sometimes I would be like damn that was buggy but it was not unplayable and the controls and mechanics were actually lots of fun. But in the end its just my opinion vs yours.
I personally hated it due to its muddy/lackluster artstyle (in game), repetitive bosses, backtracking, lack of exploration, lack of sidequests (compared to other Zeldas), terrible controls, and forgettable dungeons.
@@paulmaloney4387 hmm I disagree with a lot of that, the artstyle was amazing and easily one of my favorites of the series, I personally liked going back to places u visited before and seeing how they have changed, lack of exploration I didnt mind but I can see why u wouldnt like it, controls again were wonky at times but the game mechanics were still fun, and I really disagree with the dungeons, the dungeons were amazing in my opinion. I respect your opinion though
Congratulations on finding a fantastic niche and doing an absolute bang up job, the quality of your content continues to go up! Love it
It’s been a while since I’ve visited this channel. And MAN! Has the quality gone up! Definitely subscribing this time around!
Great video as always. Loved that half-second clip of Matt when you covered the motion controls 😂 had me rolling
"I walk up real quiet with the net, and then I-DO THIS; I JUST DO THIS" - optimal bug catching strategy courtesy of Nerrel
Hooray! The adventures of I Farted continue!!!
Seriously, one of your best videos to date. That Chris Farley bit had me rolling! XD
Haven't watched you guys in like a year and holy crap the editing somehow got even better and I laughed so hard at this. Good job! Love how your channel blew up. Keep up the quality content 👌🏼
I absolutely love the editing and comedy in this video!
Already subbed, but I hope that quality will be held up throughout the uploads UwU
3:03 needs to be a ringtone.
Also, did you guys actually deep fry that chip? If so that’s next level commitment to a bit!
7:10 did he just make a demon slayer reference
Truly outdone yourselves with the editing on this one!
Gosh, I get such genuine joy every time I start one of these videos and hear you start talking
Please make a mock "Sounds of The Legend of Zelda, to annoy your girlfriend with" commercial. Like the campy 90s greatest love song collections infomercials.
Use the "Y" button often to re-center your controller and that eliminates like 95% of the issue (doublecheck that percentage with Fi), that being said it'd be a lot cooler if picking a different item didn't uncenter you in the first place.
I can’t recall every video of yours I’ve seen but this is definitely top notch editing. Holy wow 😮
Aww man i hope theres a part 2 to this! It was delightful
Haven't seen it in the comments yet so I'll say it! Best edit is giving dee the bird sound instead of the discovery sound😂😂 had me dying
Skyward sword is the testing ground for a lot of breath of the wild concepts
Which makes sense why I never finished either, while I did every single other one. I won't say they aren't fun, but the little things like mentioned above, the daunting size of breath of wild, and both having to use the crappy motion controls, and in the case of the switch a diminutive controller that barely lends itself for properly pressing buttons in my mitten hands, make for a poor experience unfortunately. Which sucks cause I really was looking forward to both those titles when they came out.
@@tehnemox You have no excuse for breath of the wild. You can turn off motion controls, you can play using a pro controller, and who the hell complains about a game having content?
@@theinternetsightseer2935 I only own a Switch light for starters. And open world games, especially nowadays, have too much content. It's hard for some people to decide what to do when presented with too many choices. And for completionist, sometimes less is more.
Ah yes, I too watched that Honest Trailer
I loved the hill fall edit! it was funny during that movie and you just made it 10x better!!
I AM SO EXCITED FOR A NEW EPISODE! THANK YOU FOR SOME OF THE BEST STUFF EVER. but seriously you guys are just amazing
This is the greatest video you've ever done. Holy crap you merged Star Wars, Zelda, and Ru-Paul, and set it to Tenacious D. Amazing.
Yay! You guys are back with an actual review! But that Target trip was Epic cool different also.👍💯🙏🏻
I loved the target video. Lol
Matts friend code at 1:06 is just... *chefs kiss*
Omg you put the Bird Feather item prompt over D for Always Sunny, incredible attention to detail
"Made it before a minute passes" gang, rise up!
lets goooo
Got here before two minutes:)
I didn't think I'd see you here.
Omg I’m still laughing 😂 I had to watch twice so I could full listen to the review. The rag doll down the hill and RuPaul took me out!
this is truly some editing masterwork, so many smooth transitions
This is honestly the best video on a channel of many great videos. Thank you for this. I love you guys.
Shelby & Matt:"DAMNNNNNN!!!!!!!"
remeber kids if your girl yells damn at a waifus but shes a keeper
"My boyfriend is the Galaxy's biggest supporter of motion controls"
*Nerrel has entered the chat*
Jesus, the editing is just so good in this one!
Awww. I was so hoping for a Braveheart reference during the "hold hold hold" part with the fly catcher
Skyward Sword is the only Legend of Zelda game that I didn't finish, because I could never get the motion controls to correctly work. Looking forward to playing an improved version!
I hear the motion controls are just as bad/ worse, so i’ll probably not get it personally
Having tried both the new motion controls and the new button configuration, yes. They all suck... A disappointing delivery by Nintendo. Definitely looking forward to the Steam Deck!
The motion controls are bad but you can turn them off. I hate motion controls but I had a really good time playing the game.
I remember using the motion controls on the wiimote (I think I got like one of those wiimote + types that had explicitly better motion controls?) as a kid and I absolutely enjoyed it. Sometimes the motions didn't quite line up, but that was like 5% of the time! Otherwise, they went perfectly all the time. I remember skyward sword very fondly, and the motion controls were a massive part of the fun to me.
@@spellmender7902 what does the Steam Deck have anything to do with this video?
Keep up the awesome work you two!
Always excited for a new GFReviews video, always sad when it’s over that I have to wait a week for another one. This one was great! Thanks for the laughs.
You guys always have the best clips to use for analogies and memes
Woohoo new vid after all the BS!
Hope you guys enjoyed SS
I actually saw myself recentering the motion controls a lot, actually. Other than that I thought they were perfectly fine
First time on your channel. I love your humor. Definitely subbing.
all your videos are very impressive; the scripts, the editing, the jokes, and the voice work are consistently good. but this one seemed even better than usual! I woke my roommates up laughing!
18 seconds and I'm already dying😂
Yoooooo... I mean... editing has always been a huge strength with this series but did you SERIOUSLY give the Skyward Sword box a Link shadow in the lightning strike at 1:50???? We are not worthy.
Look at the front of the judges table at the end of the Drag Race bit 👀
@@GirlfriendReviews And I was so proud of myself for catching the first one. HA. That's awesome.
omg that editing brilliant!!! BRILLIANT!!!
Your videos are so well done and enjoyable that they're one of the very very few I'll immediately replay 2-3 times after
3:58 mad respect to girlfriend reviews for putting the master sword in its proper side, left handed.
I'll never forgive nintendo for taking link away from us like that
at least we still have samus
You convinced me to get borderlands 3 and horizon zero dawn. Thank you
8:11 Exactly like how it went down in Braveheart.
1:50 loved the added shadow of link in the lightning!
Jesus Christ that was packed lol, definitely one of your best ones.
Your cutaways/references and taste in games makes me know we’d be good friends IRL 😂. I can keep dreaming. Until then I’ll keep enjoying your videos!
Hahaha I think the same thing with every video they make!
Amazing video! The fun fact for me is that I actually enjoyed a lot the wii version and have no recollection of the problems with the motion controls. Also Fi didn't bother me that much, but I guess I'm the only one, lol. BTW, you spent more than a half video talking about the Wii game. I went to the title of the video just to be sure I didn't entered the wrong one, lol. Love you guys!
Great video. I've been wondering why you guys dropped the 'hol up minute running gag. Been a long time.
Yes Girlfriend reviews, Dee is a bird.
Hey Guys! Great Review!
If I'm not completely mistaken, you guys used my reorchestration "Gate of Time + Zelda's Lullaby" starting at 6:05 . Can you please credit my channel in exchange? That would be awesome! Thank you!
It's in the description! Great song!
@@GirlfriendReviews fantastic....thank you!!! :-)
Damn, the edits were super on point in this one. Good job, Matt!
Dude the level of freaking detail in the rolling scene.
Amazing use of the HUD
