That is, Skate or Die. I remember having fun times with these games, especially the improve ramp mechanics in the sequel. I didn't beat the sequel though, ran out of time at the end.

There was a Skate Or Die sequel?

QFT and there is your answer.

Ski or Die FTW!

Seriously though the best skateboarding game on NES was Adventure Island!

Nothing beats the sex appeal of a loin cloth wearing hatchet throwing caveman who braved perilous enemies and bottomless pits! We could all learn a lesson from him though, always wear your helmet, safety first fellas!

Skate or Die on C64.

Using a joystick made things feel easier to control, and if you used a trakball you could get the max on highjump without forcing yourself into cardiac arrest.

SkateorDie2 on NES was pretty good, well, the ramp portion was atleast.

Skate or Die was better, even though Skate or Die 2 had this:

Yep. Best version by far.

I thoroughly enjoyed the half-pipe in SoD2 back in the day.

NO WAY DUDE

Skate or Die 2 is better. The first Skate or Die is pretty shallow. Not much to it. The second one is more of an actual game (with a story, items, and levels) instead of just a bunch of mini-games. It feels more cohesive.

I liked whichever one had Rodney Dangerfield as the shop owner...

He's in both of them.
