Streamer 'The Mexican Runner' sets world record as the first person to beat all 714 NES games
This is the man to beat!
Piotr Delgado Kusielczuk, known as “The Mexican Runner” on Twitch, has set a new milestone by being the first person in the world to beat all 714 NES games! And he accomplished this feat without using any cheats, a Game Genie, or even stage-select codes!
His NES Mania started in May 28th 2014 with Whomp 'Emon after his friends jokingly suggested to him to complete all NES games from A-Z and ended yesterday, February 26th 2017, with Super Mario 3.
All in all, it took him 3,435 hours to finish the 714 games, which included all 679 titles released in North America and 35 PAL exclusives. While some games were quickly completed, others that didn't have a dedicated "ending" were played until the game began looping or there was simply no other way to progress.
The patience and dedication invested by "The Mexican Runner" is surely admirable. And being a world's first, his achievement is surely going to inspire others to undertake such endeavors, so it probably won't be long before we hear about those!
