Watch gamers complete a 72-hour speed-run marathon of the Metroid series, all for a good cause!
Anyone that donates gets a chance to win a copy of Metroid Prime 3 SIGNED BY The current RETRO STUDIO employees
Right below this very text, you should be able to see gamers playing through the Metroid series of titles, raising money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital which helps some very sick kids. The marathon is being streamed live via webcam and gives viewers a look at the games being played and a view of the action going on in the room. There's also prizes for viewers the world over, which are being given out regularly during the 72 hour period.
The full list of games being played, in the order they will be playing them in: Metroid, Metroid Zero mission, Metroid II: Return of Samus, Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2, Metroid Prime Hunters, Metroid Prime 3, Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion. Do click on to thespeedgamers.blogspot.com where you can find out more info, and donate towards this very worthwhile cause. -mod edit- Fixed -Sqrl
