The 8-Bit Eric Show - Skate or Die (NES) Review | 8-Bit Eric
http://bit.ly/O0HAt9 Skate or die NES Review. I take a look at Skate or Die made in 1988 by Ultra Games for the NES. Skate or Die is one of those NES games, that was for some reason considered a popular title during its time. This was one of the earliest skateboarding games I can remember and I remember for whatever reason, even though it seemed impossible to do anything in this game, me and my friends kept playing it.
so today we are going to take a look at this game..
Skate or Die! Published by Ultra Games 1988.
Maybe it was because during the 90's the thing to do was be a rebellious teenage skateboarder.
The cover art shows your typical skating kid complete with LA Gearish type of style and a gnarly helmet!safety comes first kiddos!!
All in all, this was a popular game in its heyday, but it has aged horribly. If you are up for old school gaming then check it out, but you quickly will notice how bad the game is because of the control. Had the control been better, this might be a good game today. It is amazing how high and regard this game was in its time. But going back and ranking it, I have to give it 2 kickflips out of 5. Due to its influence on future skating games like (Tony Hawk series, etc.)
