Post Four Zelda games in 48 hours (Joystiq)

Filed under: ,


We've all, at some point, had a game that we decided not to put down until the closing credits. Whether you uncompromisingly soldiered on through a Warcraft III campaign, or decided to topple Bowser before turning in for the day, we're all familiar with marathon gaming. However, a small gathering of Zelda enthusiasts are attempting a seemingly impossible gauntlet of non-stop dungeon raiding -- all four 3D Zelda games (Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess) in just 48 hours.

That's four water temples, three Ganondorf confrontations, and a whole mess of heart containers, stretched over a two day period. With nearly thirty hours to go, the CameronBanga.com team have already bested Ocarina of Time, and are currently trudging through the most tedious of all the Zelda titles, Majora's Mask. We can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday night than watching these goons sink into sweet, Hyrulian madness via their live webstream -- but then again, we're what most camp counselors would call "indoor kids".

I guess they are at the very end of Windwaker. Now they just need to beat Twilight in 5 hours. Not gonna happen, but as long as viewers have already donated the money they can do whatever they want.

Hmm? They're with Majora's Mask, now?
Did they not do anything with Twilight Princess?

They said Majora's Mask was freezing on them so they gave up. I guess they are just now going back to it.

Wierd... I think Majora's Mask only ever froze on me once... or maybe twice. I guess the European version was fixed up a bit.
