Zeldathon Gaming Marathon to Raise Money for the National Children’s Advocacy Center (NCAC)
It seems like every week there’s a new gaming marathon that’s raising money for a new charity, but it’s not a bad trend. We here at Ripten love helping others, and as long as these gaming marathons continue, we’ll continue to support them. The latest is from Zeldathon, a team of students from Florida International University’s radio station who will host a marathon to raise money for the National Children’s Advocacy Center tonight at 6PM EST.
In the past, they’ve raised money for Child’s Play & the NCAC with success, and they’re going for another run, this time with 14 SNES games for 48 hours straight. If you can, tune in tonight to watch them play through Sunday, and donate whatever you can to help ‘em out.
The list of games they’re going to play through is after the jump, and while I’m sad to see my favorite SNES game, Sunset Riders, absent from the list, the games they are running through are pretty impressive. [Zeldathon]
