It's back!!! NESathon returns for a 6th consecutive year.
We will be playing NES games in HD on retroUSB's AVS for over 50 hours straight to raise funds for MS research.
And it all starts Friday, April 21 at 3PM EST, live on:






Prizes:

2 prize packs will be raffled off which will each include an exclusive NintendoAge NESathon2K17 Tshirt, made by NEX Game store. A third shirt will be given to the person who donates the most.

Prize Pack 1:

Donations:
100% of donations will go to MS research.
To donate just click the donate button below the stream window on Twitch (will be posted the day before the event).

Donations in the denomination of $20, we will play an NES game of your choice.
For every $35 donation you make your name will be entered once into the raffles.
If you donate $50 or more Nintendo Age will reward you with an MS award icon, and you can select 3 games to be played.
For those who donate $100, they will be entered into the raffles 3 times, can select 6 games and receive an MS award icon.

To break down how it works, if you were to donate $70 you could select 4 games for us to play live on stream, get your name entered twice into the raffles, and receive an award icon. WOW!
