Summer Games Done Quick is one of our favourite annual events - alongside the other 'Games Done Quick' extravaganza each year - in the world of speedrunning and general gaming awesomeness. It features some of the world's most skilful players rattling through classic games while raising an incredible amount of money.

This year's event is raising money for Doctors Without Borders once again, and no doubt plenty of you have been following it all week. It's now heading into its final 12 hours - at the time of writing - and will aim to blast past $1 million raised; based on past events the odds are very good.

The run-in includes a number of Nintendo gems, including Pokemon Red, the iconic Super Metroid event and a finale of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. You can see the remaining schedule on this page.

As always you can head over to the official website to donate, if you'd like, while there's also a Humble Bundle with some PC games.
