[TAS] GB Skate or Die: Bad 'n Rad by JXQ in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2299M
TAS originally published on 2013-02-03
Skate or Die - Bad 'n Rad is the only game in the Skate or Die series to be developed by Konami instead of EA. In this game, our unnamed skateboarder shreds through a mix of side-scrolling and top-down levels. There are enemies and bosses after him, who he can attack by jumping in the air and bashing them with his skateboard.
JXQ ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/JXQ ) proves he's both bad and rad as he rolls straight through the obstacles, precisely avoiding damage and making the game look easy.
--------
Note: The credits in the encode end halfway through due to an emulation error crashing the game at that point.

Man, thank goodness this was made in 1990, imagine what kind of nightmare would spawn from a crossover between EA and Konami today

[@garuelx8627]

I remember the original game just being a fun small collection of skate minigames, but I guess after that they put way more emphasis on the "or Die" aspect. Kinda unreal this exists...

...What the hell kind of town IS this place???

3:33 having a mural of yourself at the finish line of a deadly obstacle course is a big-time power move

"A registered trademark of Electronic Arts" So that shit summoned in way too earlier huh? How disastrous for the gaming history.

[@JaxonHaze]

I remember this game! I haven’t thought about it in decades, great memories

[@MiloTheMightyDude]

Wow, that game sure has a title.

[@Koettnylle]

Holy crap, I remember this game being immensely difficult

[@edge3220]

Wow, for the original GameBoy the music is really good.

[@BloodEevee]

Radical

12:20 This is that moment in history where a bunch of gorillas talked Tony Hawk into performing a stunt on a defective ramp. He has never been the same since then. Brain damage forced him to retire.

[@adaman0215]

I wonder if Konami still has "Bad 'N Rad" trademarked...

[@karnovrpg]

I didn't even know there was a game boy version.

[@The_Wandering_Nerd]

Remember when EA actually supported Nintendo consoles? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Hudson's Adventure Island　Homage？

[@lindsaywheatcroft8247]

Weird how EA didn’t revive the franchise during the first two PlayStation generations

"Our unnamed skateboarder shreds through a mix of sidescrolling and top-down levels." What happens if a skateboarder is named ᅚ?
