A group of 3 gamers from Indiana have decided to play through 7 Super Mario games (Super Mario Bros. 1, 2 and 3, Super Mario World, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy) -- and stream it live on the Internet via Ustream.tv. They've promised to play for at least 55 hours straight, and take donations for a children's charity, Child's Play, that donates toys and games to kids in hospitals, to bring a little joy to their life.

You can watch their live progress in the video box above or check out their website for more info at MarioMarathon.com. Be warned: They aren't very good players. But, they are just a group of guys that like video games and want to help out the kids. If you want to donate, head to their page or just click here.

Pretty neat.
