I remember when 780 came out in the arcades (I've even got it for MAME) and it was one of the best games around for a long time. It's the game where the phrase "Skate or Die" came from. I still like to play it from time to time for nostalgias sake.
I never played the NES game Skate or Die so i can't really make a comment on it specifically.
I have played Tony Hawk (2 and 3) extensively and have to say there is no way any 8 bit game could compete with it on any level (other than nostalgia). Tony Hawk 2 is one of the most well rounded games ever developed on any platform. The learning curve alone makes it one of the most rewarding games to play.
So go ahead and keep playing your 8 bit classic... I'm sure you have fun listening to music on 8 tracks, and shooting photos with your 110 camera, and riding to work (or school) on your old tricycle as well.
I'm going to enjoy the toys new technology has given me to play with and always remember the "good old days" with fondness.

Gullible isn't in the dictionary.
