Super Mario World

Mario 64
Luigi's Mansion
Mario Sunshine
Mario Galaxy

10 Games 48 hours.

Sorry about the slow process in getting your prizes. They should arrive soon.

It was brought to our attention that another group has done a Mario Marathon this past weekend. While we salute them on the job they did in raising money for a great cause, it does hurt our upcoming marathon. We're sure we are going to be accused of copying them and other such things but everyone should make sure to keep your cool. I thought about completely changing the Mario Marathon for another franchise, but after thinking on the subject for awhile I came to the conclusion that it would be impractical to switch on such a short notice. We will do our best to keep our marathon fresh and unique. Msico Aka Phillip, informed me he will be donating his copy of Mario Kart Wii (NTSC) for the grand prize in the Mario Marathon. Thank you very much Phil for all your help!

We wont be gaming for a charity this time around. We will use the 48 hours to promote the 72 Hour Metroid Marathon in August which we will be raising money for St. Jude. There is a possibility we will be having a SpeedGamer from overseas take part in the Metroid marathon if everything works our properly; no official word yet.
