    Solid port of an excellent remaster that you can now play on the go. I originally played this on the PS5, and then I decided to bite while this game was on sale for Switch.

    As far as the game itself. It’s a fantastic remaster of two massively popular games of their time. The gameplay is true to the roots, but loaded with tons of quality of life improvements that make this more of a    Solid port of an excellent remaster that you can now play on the go.

    As far as the game itself. It’s a fantastic remaster of two massively popular games of their time. The gameplay is true to the roots, but loaded with tons of quality of life improvements that make this more of a modern experience. The only issue is that in the modern era of gaming, this can be a very short experience, even with both games included. Luckily, the price reflects the length of the game. Regardless they did a wonderful job bringing life back to this series and doing a full course nostalgia trip for everyone in their 30’s.

    Regarding the port, as I mentioned in other Switch reviews - if you wanted graphics, then you bought the wrong console. The Switch version obviously does not look as good and the frame rate is not as good. But the game is portable, and is awesome playing it in handheld mode, especially since this is a game you pick up and play for 30 minutes and I’ll put it away. If you want 4K 60FPS, buy it on the other consoles. If you want portability, buy it on the Switch.    … 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.
