Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, Activision’s gorgeous reimagined collection of the first two Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games, is now available on Nintendo Switch.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 previously released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One last year to massive critical and commercial success, quickly becoming the fastest game in the series to hit the milestone of 1 million copies sold. Of course, considering the first two entries in the popular franchise have widely been considered the best of the bunch, it comes as no surprise that re-releasing them with a graphical overhaul was so successful.

Both games included in the remake collection are faithful recreations of the original titles fans have known and loved for two decades, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few extra goodies included to bring them up to modern standards. Some fresh goals to achieve flesh out the first game, while most of the levels have received some fairly significant visual flourishes to help them feel more like real places. Most notable of all, though, is how the game has retroactively added many tricks that weren’t originally available until later entries in the series.

Whether you’re a first time player or a long-time fan of these classic titles, there’s truly no better way to play them than developer Vicarious Vision’s fully remade versions. With an incredible soundtrack, iconic levels, bevy of skaters, and plenty of new additions that make the game feel more modern, you won’t want to miss out on grabbing up Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 today on Switch.

Billy will always claim he didn't intentionally get the platinum trophy in Snoopy's Grand Adventure, but he's lying.
