Child's Play is an awesome charity. I hope they raise a ton.

Looks like they left off the list all of the Mario Party games... Good idea, because Mario CHEATS in that one!

A second ago they were just talking about how Joystiq posted this. Fun to watch live feed going on.

Where is Mario's Missing, guys?

They're still going. They've raised over $24,000 dollars so far and still have to 100% Super Mario Sunshine now.

What game was insane? Ma Ma Mia? Is it a game based on the Abba song? Or on the movie based on the song? Because THAT is insane.

Not to take anything away from these crazy people, but The Speed Gamers will be starting their week long Final Fantasy run on July 17th (6pm CST) that includes final fantasys 1 thru 12 excluding 11, to benefit ACT Today an Autism care and treatment charity.

more details at: http://www.thespeedgamers.com/


But what about the super mario world star path, that too?

If you are refering to Galaxy's blue coins, I very much doubt they will be having much trouble with it. I assume they will be doing Galaxy last and it is definitely the easiest game of the bunch.

Wait, no. Those were purple coins in Galaxy. The blue coins were in Sunshine...



Yes, good luck with those blue coins.

If they hunt down a virtual boy and Super Mario Clash, they'll burn off their retinas and be unable to complete. Plus there are like 9 Mario Party games and this is charity work: not a suicide pact.

Whoopty doo! I mean, it's good they're doing this for charity, and have been raising a lot of money, but this is by no means an impressive feat. I did the same thing shortly before Super Mario Galaxy came out (and then including Galaxy once it did). I played every single level, got every single star/shine. Except I played ALL of the Mario games, including the Japanese Super Mario Brothers 2 (far and away the hardest game in the series), Super Mario Land 1 and 2, and New Super Mario Bros. When Twilight Princess came out I marathoned all the Zelda games, 100% completion, and when Metroid Prime 3 came out I marathoned all the Metroid games, 100% completion.

Yeah, I know, overreacted a bit, but seriously, this is like guys washing windows for charity. And not even your windows, their OWN windows. They could have marathoned a more difficult series, like the Ghosts 'n' Goblins series. Or done speed runs on all the Metroid games. But it's for a good cause.

You're free to go ahead and raise money for Child's Play by Marathon the Zelda games 100%. Go ahead, do it.

Maybe you'd rather 100% Metroid Marathon instead?

Or go on and marathon a more difficult series, like the Ghosts 'n' Goblins series. Or done speed runs on all the Metroid games.

Haha, yeah you can buddy, you're the 3rd reply to a post by a guy who was being a dick and has no life. When you're nested that deeply in a comments section on a news post about Mario marathoning for charity, on a video game blog, then you're not exactly in a position to be making yourself look all high and mighty.

Actually, yeah, Super Mario Land 2 was on the easier side of most Mario games, although the final castle where you find Wario was pretty challenging. Super Mario Land 1 was much more difficult, in my opinion. Super Mario Sunshine was fairly easy if you just wanted to cruise by and get the obvious Shines, but if you wanted all of them, especially the blue coin shines, good god that could get frustrating. And then Lost Levels, the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2, that game is just a hardcore dick. What with the poison mushrooms, warp zones that send you BACK to earlier worlds, invisible blocks, jumps that must be assisted by the wind, and the numerous leaps of faith you had to make with no idea where, or on what, you would land. And then the final castle, having to fight Bowser twice in a row, ugh.

No, it was Wario that you fought in Super Mario Land 2. You're thinking of Super Mario Bros 2 or Super Mario USA.

Super Mario Land 2 was made easier by the sheer fact you could save. Plus it was just laid out more similarly to Super Mario 3, while Land 1 was closer to the original SMB

I speak English, whilst I've only lived in the USA for around 5 years now. I'm fluent in Dutch (my native tongue) and English. I understand most of French and German and I'm learning a bit of Spanish.
