Could I? Yes, easily. Would I? Probably not.

If you've ever seen any of the speed runs of these games, it's possible to beat them in a few hours. Add a few hours to each game if  you are playing at a semi-quick pace and it isn't that hard. Assuming that they aren't beating any of the games 100% (i.e. not unlocking every item, just beating the main game) it isn't that hard.

It's not like any of the Zelda games are particularly difficult, especially on your second go-round.

It all ends in failure. (http://www.cameronbanga.com/)  They had a serious problem with Majora's Mask freezing on the Wii, but that's not the whole story.  Serves them right for not playing the games on the correct systems.  (Kidding.  I'd be pissed if I spent $10 on MM on the Wii, only to have it freeze repeatedly.)

I had the feed going for a few min. to check up on how they were doing from time to time, and yeah MM seemed like it fucked everything up.  The seemed to get through the first game in no time at all, but I guess they really ran into troubles with the second (which I've never played).

Either way, they raised $1000 for Childs Play, so that's pretty good.

Yeah, not bad for just screwing around.

That's pretty cool that they were raising money for charity. Too bad they didn't get all the way through.
