Mega Man Marathon

It’s Marathon time again! Just like our first marathon in 2009, Ninfest will join forces with Extra Life once again to raise donations, this time for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. We asked you what franchise you’d like to see us tackle next and Mega Man came up the clear winner. The marathon will start Saturday, October 15th at 8am PST and run for 24 hours until Sunday, October 16th at 8am PST. The Marathon will be streaming live in the MARATHON CHANNEL where you will be able to watch us, the games being played, and chat with us and other viewers. The games we will be playing hasn’t been finalized yet, but as of right now we will be running through Mega Man 1-3 on the NES, Mega Man X 1-3 on the Super NES, and Mega Man 64 on the Nintendo 64. Should we finish these games before we hit the 24 hour mark we will go back and beat sequels 4-6 in the original and X series’. Throughout the marathon we are also considering giving away Mega Man prizes...stay tuned. Our goal is to raise $600 so tell all your friends and help spread the word! See you there!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!! Wish I could play.:\

I get roped into a Marathon and these are what I have to play? Oh Streex how you torture me

It wasn't me! I'll have to look back at the previous marathon thread to see who it was that requested the mega man marathon. Regardless of the games played, it's fun, you'll see. Maybe not very fun when you're in that last 7 hour stretch, but my experience is that after all was said and done it was a good time.

I hope to see you in the chat this year ZeldAnTales!

Ok, final details are set. You guys ready because I'm gonna need help promoting this beast to reach $600.

We're playing Mega Man 1-6 from the NES and Mega Man 7 from the SuperNes. All will be played off the GameCube title Mega Man Anniversary Collection. On the Marathon page you'll see a link where you can send ninfest an email to enter into the giveaway for the same game we are using. Still starts at 8am pst this saturday running for 24 hours. I'd love to see you guys jump in the chat there.

Marathon is LIVE now! come on in guys and chat with us! links in the above post.

I'm tryin Streex. My only problem is that my internet is even worse by slowering things down to me. I hate it so much.

I saw that you were in there earlier!

I did say I tried getting in to chat so I did. In fact I just did it just now, but still having problems with my internet bein so slow. That means I have to wait for a while to let the internet run normal smoothly until further notice to my dad trying to get the internet fast again.

Man it sucks that everyone in this post are not here to there for this marathon except only me which I saw for hours except went to nap eventually and soon going to bed around midnight.

marathon is still going guys if anyone is still up. Or Matthew999, it might be morning there. Come chat with us. We're playing for another 4 1/2 hours.

you all make us sad Pandas.

Went to church today. >.< Been gone too long forgot about te whole damn thing.
Next marathon!!!!!!

It was cool chatting with you Nintendo Furniture! I knew I could count on the Mega Man master to be there. Good thing you left after we beat Mega Man 1-6. Once we hit Mega Man 7 and Mega Man X we were so tired. It was like trying to beat the two most difficult games ever made. I bet if we played them at the top of the Marathon we would have beaten them. We were also on the Good Day Sacramento TV show to promote the marathon. That was cool.

I'm not ready to give the marathon the success stamp just yet. We've raised $387 but our goal is $600. If you guys know a handful of people that are willing to donate $24 each to the cause that just might get us there.

Share this donation page if you can.

That's totally sweet! And now I know Triz's secret identity! Mwoohahaha!!!!

*sends letter bomb for Triz hating on Smash Bros years back...*

We're doing another marathon this year on October 20th. Mark it on your calendars!

I'll fly over to join it!

Even if its a Non Nintendo one? lol. This one is going to be all online games so you can play with us. And not have us rage over 24 hours of Mega Man.

woooooo! If it's non-Nintendo I can do Starcraft 2, Team Fortress 2, League of Legends, or any of a number of older games. As for Nintendo, we could do Smash Bros, any of 3 Mario Karts, Kid Icarus, Goldeneye, REM or RER, Phantom Hourglass, Advance Wars... What's the plan?

I'm not sure. I went with ZeldAnTales pick for Mega Man last year. This year Triz is doing the game choosing. Maybe when the time comes around I can convince him to throw in a couple Nintendo titles.
