NES Spectrum Marathon

When: September 8th - September 10th, beginning at 3pm NA time
Where:


More Info: rebrand.ly/nesspectrum

I am hosting an NES gaming marathon to raise money for Autism research. We are going to play NES games for 50+ hours.

Similar to the NESathon that Phil (osg) and Ted (nes_pimp) have run for many years, the games will be requested by people like YOU who donate to the charity.

$20 - 1 game of your choosing


$35 - 2 games of your choosing


$40 - 3 games of your choosing


$60 - 6 games of your choosing

For every game you request, you get entered into a raffle to win some incredible homebrew prize packs, which were donated by our sponsors

Hope to see you all there. Mog will be making a special appearance, along with some of my local friends.

Thanks a lot for reading.

Yes, since Randy and Jasen will be here it would be silly to not have a friendly Marble Madness competition.

I don't think Paypal is an option for donating directly to the marathon charity, but if you wanted to donate to my Paypal I can then donate the money for you in your name from my own funds.

Shoot me a message if you want to go this route.

The n64 hour is honestly the only thing out of the ordinary that is happening. We had a few other hours planned, like horror night and saturday morning cartoons, but the queue has been so solid that we are just pushing through and playing nothing but donations.

On Sunday we have a couple hours scheduled. 1pm NA time is Marble Madness hour (mog, tall guy and myself battling it out) and then 2pm NA time is homebrew hour. But we've played so many homebrew games already that I'm not entirely sure what's gonna happen that hour. We'll see how the queue is at that time.
