alan We are thrilled to announce that the 2014 Nick’s Marathon will begin at 8pm Eastern on Friday, November 21st, and continue through Sunday, November 23rd. As always, we will be playing 48 consecutive hours of video-games to raise money for charity, and to honor our friend Nick Capobianco, who passed away at the age of 28.
If the date November 21st rings a bell for video-game fans, that’s because it has just been confirmed as the release date of Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U. That’s not a coincidence; we will spend a great deal of the weekend playing the highly anticipated game! We’ll be exploring all of the game’s modes and using the brand new amiibo figures, and we invite you to watch as we live-stream everything at nicksmarathon.org. You can donate, chat with us, and even challenege our Smash skills online!
