Added neskamikaze main entries.
Added some games as main and some backup entries from feasel's list.

A reminder to everyone: If you are listed next to an entry and are not specifically listed as a backup for that entry, you are expected to bring said game/console/controller etc.
If it turns out that some of the persons listed as mains are not going to show up, I will start moving backups to mains for the entries in question. Please monitor this topic closely as the marathon draws near.

My feelings on The Demon Rush

I forgot to mention that I have a copy of Battletoads too, but Zerst isn't coming so we don't need 3 copies anymore. :-/

But I am, so we do. My copy will likely kill itself on the drive there, once it figures out what the plan is.

Talk to the Hand

I can bring Battletoads, TMNT, and any of several versions (SNES, GBA, PS2 via CCC) of Final Fight.

Changed Battletoads requirement to 2 and added mikwuyma for it.
Also added MTI stuff. If you decide on which Final Fight version you want to run I'll move it to the proper category.

It will be there!
I'll make sure to test it out, but I've never had any problem with any of my cartridges (even my broken in half Super Mario World I've had since I was 2).

Edit: I don't know how picky you are about controllers, though you might want to bring your own if you are. I've never problems with any of them but some others have.

Updated with latest cuts.
Also matched the list against the schedule and corrected some that I had missed.

I expect we'll see more changes in this list once the signups are closed and we'll know who's definitely coming or not.

Unstriked Uncharted 2.

Heidman: Do you mean to say that your old specification is no longer valid and you are only bringing what you posted in this last post?

I mean add them to what I said before. I am still bringing everything I said before

Alright, just wanted to make sure. Thought I already had you listed for at least one SNES and Double Dragon so that's why I asked.

I just noticed that Nightmare in Dreamland is listed as a race and not the cooperative multiplayer I originally thought. If this is correct then I need to up the required GC units.

I guess I'll just go ahead and list what I'm bringing:
1 N64
1 N64/SNES/GCN S-Video Cable
2 N64 Controllers
1 Ocarina of Time
1 Mario Kart 64
1 SMB/DH for andrewg to play/sign if we go with that idea

As well as some other random N64 games to play for fun (GE 007, Perfect Dark, etc). I have a decent N64 library so if there is a game we need PM me and I might have it.

Even if it was Co-op, you still would need multiple Gamecubes. We just don't need the link cables by not doing co-op.

I will be bringing my own GC with GBP, BTW.

I'm bringing 1 gamecube as well.

Also, WE NEED TO LABEL OUR *** CONSOLES *** AND *** CONTROLLERS *** AND *** everything else. With so many moving parts, things could get confusing very quickly.

Heh. I doubt I need to label my Gamecube. It's so unique, that if anybody happened to have the exact same modifications, it would be 1 in a trillion. Custom case and skin FTW baby.

My consoles/games/controllers are easy to find. They're the ones that will run away once I come looking for them.

spread the dirt to the populace

My NES would probably be useful for the marathon. 72-pin connector is in fine shape and it's modded so you don't have to press the cart down.

The games I could bring are all either stuff other people probably have (e.g. Castlevania 4) or random poverty for bonus stream (which I probably can't stay around for anyway).

welcome to the machine

Everyone should just bring copies of their games and their own controllers. Only things we really need this thread for are systems and other hardware.

Did not know co-op worked that way in that game. Upped the req to 3.

Added Sir VG and tjp for a GC each.
Added Josh on backup for NES. If someone already on the NES list feels their might be in less good condition compared to Josh's, speak up and I'll switch you around.

Maybe everyone should, but everyone might not be able to. I already covered this here.
Also to add to that, people coming in from Europe will quite likely not be able to bring their own games.

Would you need a PAL TV if you want to play PAL games? I dont know if there even is such thing as an PAL/NTSC TV. If you can play PAL games on an
'' NTSC '' TV, i could bring my own console and game.

I know you can play NTSC games on newer PAL TVs, but I have no idea about the other way around.
