NES: Skate or Die

Skate or Die is a game I really hated as I child.  I sucked at it.  I could never figure out how to do any of the tricks or how to win any of the modes of playing.  Keeping in mind that the game is called "Skate or Die," I was always under the impression that your character would die if you refused to skate.  So, as a chile mind you, I started the game and just left it on for an hour.  Yeah, you never die.  Below is a video of the game play.  Anyone else remember this game?

    This game was frustrating as hell when I was younger too, I think we all have to go through that phase

    Yes! I played it a lot actually! And I probably have not even thought about it since the 80's. I nostalgia'd hard. Following.

    First time I heard about the game was on the angry video game nerd. It's just an oldschool game, you can't expect it to be really well made
