TheSpeedGamers hosts Zelda marathon stream for St. Jude’s Hospital

TheSpeedGamers is one of the longest running charity streams, and this weekend they are marathoning the Zelda series to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The marathon began June 15 and runs until June 19, and the team will be streaming around three to four games each day. Upcoming games on the stream include Majora’s Mask and the CDi games on July 16, Link’s Awakening, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and Phantom Hourglass on July 17, Skyward Sword and A Link Between Worlds on July 18, then Breath of the Wild and Ocarina of Time on July 19. A more detailed schedule of each game and the times they will be played can be found here.

As they play through each of the games, keep an eye out for the different donation goals that will change how the player has to complete the game. For example, one such donation goal meant the player had to skip a Heart Container in Majora’s Mask. Needless to say, with such a diverse group of Zelda games and fun donation incentives, the marathon is a lot of fun to watch.

Thus far the stream has raised more than $4,000 in just the short time since it began. Be sure to check out the stream and support the cause!
