Zealous NES collectorPat the NES Punkis holding aChild’s Play charitythatruns through tomorrowalready ended. The current total sits just above $16K, and he’s offering incentives to donators to make that final push.

At $20K, he was going to release a music video that he and Baldy McBalderson, a.k.a. brentalfloss, collaborated on (with guitar work by Sir Robert Bakker of The Protomen). The goal wasn’t met, but “Nintendohemian Rhapsody” is ready for your eyeballs anyway.

It is a parody of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” obviously, that laments the “Nintendo Hard” challenge of 8-bit games. I think we can all relate to the boys’ plight. Enjoy the vid and donate if you wanna!
