Watch at the Mario Marathon website!

Every year, three dudes, one dog and a whole bunch of other people come together to raise money for Child's Play Charity by playing through all the main series Mario games. They're at it for the fourth time, and this year, it's looking better than ever. There are contests, live games, applause buttons, and more.

Of course, we here at Negative World are undoubtedly the most HARDCORE Nintendo fans on the planet. And we're going to prove it by donating the most money to the Mario Marathon cause. This page has the rankings for how much money has been donated on behalf of which sites. To add to the Negative World total, just donate using this widget:


The first 500 donors will receive a free downloadable copy of SUPER MARIO: HOW NINTENDO CONQUERED AMERICA!

Remember- it's for the children!

Negative World Ranked #28

I just gave $10, so Secret_Tunnel can update the amount to $100. Sorry, I didn't use the widget, I used the link from the actual marathon site. Oh well, no biggie.

Aw, we don't get credit for it then, unfortunately.

edit - Or it looks like we did? Hmm.

Sorry, I didn't read the info above where S_T posted to use the widget. When I donated I put in NW's url, thinking that would update NW's donation total. I noticed the amount did go up, unless someone else donated.

The Mario Marathon site tracks where you came from. So even if you don't use the widget, if you first heard about the Marathon on Negative World your donation will still count.

@Secret_Tunnel

That makes sense cause I used the link from your post to get to the marathon, plus like I mentioned above I put in NW's url in the field when I donated the money.

Just $15 and we'd be in the top 25, at least. C'mon!

I chipped in $10 a few hours ago.

After wasting the past 3 nights watching these guys, I felt I had to contribute. Plus it was fun hearing them say thanks to Kenny G, heh.

Hey it's me again. Thanks for watching, contributing donations to Child's Play, and help spread the word about the event.
I totally spaced it - forgot to mention you during the event but things get a little hectic when streaming a show 24/7 for the children.

I've received the link to the book but haven't started it yet. I will soon! Thanks for doing this, I only wish I could have watched more of it!
