The beginning of a new era

Hey guys! Scott (also known as The Onion Knight) from the NintenDawgs here. Things are getting underway as we inch closer to the day of the fundraiser. So if you're unaware, we're raising money for Child's Play Charity, which is an organization that raises money for hospitals around the world. If you want to learn more about them, please check out www.childsplaycharity.org.

 Our event, which we're thinking of calling Lost in Translation, will take place on April 20th and end April 22. We've got about 14 games on the list to play, although we won't be finishing them all. The list goes a little something like this:

The Legend of Zelda
Dragon Quest
Xevious
Final Fantasy III (and possibly FFI and II)
Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Mario World
Actraiser
Street Fighter II Turbo
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
StarFox
Super Metroid
Mario Paint
Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem
Fire Emblem: Genealogy of Holy-War
Mother 2 (also known as Earthbound)

You may have noticed some Japanese exclusive titles on the list. That's because we'll be playing all of these games on a Famicom and a Super Famicom! These systems are the Japanese versions of the NES and SNES, so all of these games will be in Japanese.

The games we'll be finishing are The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, Actraiser, StarFox, and Super Metroid. We'll be streaming live on twitch.tv and I'll post a link to our twitch.tv page later this week.
