We’re thrilled to announce that Nick’s Marathon is set for November 7–9, 2025. And this year, we’re leveling up in a big way.
For the first time ever, we’ll be streaming live from Ronald McDonald House Charities New York Metro! We’ve been donating video games and systems to this House for years because of the special connection it has with our namesake. In 1986, Nick participated in a ribbon-cutting ceremony when the House first opened.

Since we first started Nick’s Marathon, we’ve been making donations to this Ronald McDonald House. In fact, this plaque hangs in their playroom.

Now, we’re growing our partnership as we raise money for a brand-new gaming nook at RMHC NYM’s new House in Stony Brook, Long Island, set to open in 2026. Nick found comfort playing video games during his battle with cancer, and we know this gaming nook will offer the same joy and escape to kids who need it most.
We can’t wait to share more details about this very special marathon in the coming months. In the meantime, save the date, stay tuned, and spread the word!
