Speedrunning group TheSpeedGamers has successfully hit their goal for their 72-hour Mega Man Marathon, raising a grand total of $11,860 for charity. After some technical issues in the first day, they made a great comeback thanks to various auctions, smashing their $10,000 goal and extending the marathon another full 24 hours. All money raised will go to Rocking H Ranch where it will be split up across multiple charities.
During the event, the group played through all Mega Man Classic and X games, as well as Legends and Battle Network 1 and the newly released Street Fighter x Mega Man. Many prizes were given out including download codes for The Amazing BrandO’s Instrumental of Devastation, t-shirts, posters and a gorgeous hand-crafted PET-styled GBA Micro case with a Micro and Battle Network 1 included.
It certainly was an awesome experience to be able to sponsor such a worthy cause. To all who watched and/or donated, thank you!
