    Half the framerate, but still full price - go figure.. and that's just the beginning of the shortcomings in this version.

    The visuals are very lackluster compared to Ps4's version - which I own and really like! the controls are poor, because of the horrible joy-cons and their drift issues. I would never support a severely downgraded version of a game just because "it's handheld,    Half the framerate, but still full price - go figure.. and that's just the beginning of the shortcomings in this version.

    I would never support a severely downgraded version of a game just because "it's handheld, duh.." and I would implore you to not purchase either.

    If you release a severely lackluster version of a game, the price should also reflect that! not even the most hardened Nintendo fanboy could possibly refute this.    … Expand

    Awful controls, unstable gameplay, poor menu navigation. Overall terrible on the Nintendo Switch. Doesn't seem like they put enough time in game testing before it was released considering all the goals I try to complete over and over again, meanwhile the original versions never had this issue. Why re-release/remake these levels several times? Cash grab much? I haven't experienced anythingAwful controls, unstable gameplay, poor menu navigation. Overall terrible on the Nintendo Switch.

Why re-release/remake these levels several times? Cash grab much? I haven't experienced anything more boring and repetitive while gaming when I'm playing this game. I think I said enough already, I'm not gonna waste more time on this review. I've already put in hundreds of hours for the first two games, but what about the other predecessors that had many great reviews and scores as well. Are we just gonna toss those ideas in the trash? That would make them more money if they just re-release 3-7 (American Wasteland) from the franchise.… Expand

    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 on the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic port. Sure, it's graphically inferior and not as pretty to look at, but that's the only noticeable concession made to get it to run on Nintendo's beloved hybrid console. That's not to say it's being rendered in "potato mode," by the way - it still looks great for what it is, with each real-life skater clearly distinguishable despite the lower pixel count. With the outrageously impressive amount of content and extremely rewarding gameplay loop, there's nothing to stop this port being a solid recommendation for Switch owners.

    Vicarious Vision’s love for this franchise is clear throughout each tour of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2. Controls are precise, gameplay is addicting, there is plenty of content and really well designed levels are complemented by a wonderful soundtrack. It’s only such a shame that the Switch version does not hit the performance targeted by the series for almost two decades now.

    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater has found its way to the Nintendo Switch and we couldn't be happier about it. Both games lend themselves perfectly to brief sessions, which works well with this handheld console. There are some visual downgrades, yes, though as far as gameplay is concerned, the titles play as well as they ever have. Sincerely recommended.
