Past Marathons

About SNES Classics

This event took place on December 18, 2009, and was an “exhibition.” We played a number of SNES games, non-stop, for 48 hours to raise money for the National Children’s Advocacy Center.

About Zeldathon ‘09

We played 7 Zelda video games, non-stop, for 85 hours to raise money for the National Children’s Advocacy Center (NCAC). Zeldathon ‘09 took place from August 14 – 17, 2009 and raised over $1,500.

About Game Marathon Invitational

The Game Marathon Invitational took place from December 18 – 24, 2008. It was an exhibition event which did not raise funds for any organization; it was just for fun.

We had all sorts of ideas of what we would do during winter break and then we threw them out the window when we were offered the chance to race against the Wily Whompers Team through an incredibly challenging list of games. In the end, we were beat by 24 hours, but both teams had a lot of fun, in addition to our viewers.

About Zeldathon ‘08

Zeldathon ‘08 was an attempt to play the following Legend of Zelda games within 72 hours: The Legend of Zelda, The Adventure of Link, A Link To The Past, Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, The Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess. We hoped to raise money for  Child’s Play through donations from our webcast viewers. After 104 hours of continuous gaming, we managed to beat all the games and surpass both our original goal of $1,000 and our second goal of $1,337 and raise $1,468.66 for the charity. All in all, a major success.
