EXCLUSIVE: Mario Marathon 3 interview

Just a quick heads up, I just posted an interview I had with the guys doing the Mario Marathon 3 gaming marathon this weekend.  You can read the full interview here.   Here is a little bit of the Q&A:

Last year’s event was absolutely massive raising over $29,000 for Child’s Play Charity, how do you improve upon that?

Brian - As a kid I sucked at Super Mario Brothers, some might say I still do! I spent as much time watching my friend’s sister play as I did playing myself. It is a game that is as much fun to watch as it is to play, and that has held true throughout the series. If I asked a friend, "Want to come over? I'm trying to beat Super Mario World tonight." it would be an enjoyable experience. We try to take that experience and expanding it to everyone in the world. The more people we can get involved and inform about Child's Play Charity the bigger the more successful the event will become. To answer your question, we're working to spread the word and increase the opportunities for interaction through things like Twitter and Facebook as well as a whole set of contests.
