5:58AM - Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
We've seen a lot of Metal Gear representation at Games Done Quick over the years. But you know what game we don't see a lot of? The Twin Snakes! This was the only Metal Gear Solid game to ever grace a Nintendo platform and it's largely forgotten by the series' fans, so seeing it here is a treat. If you're reading this post as it's going up, this game is on right now, so go check it out!

8:36AM - The Wario Block
We see a lot of Mario games at Games Done Quick events, but we don't get to see a whole lot of Wario. That's changing for AGDQ 2021 Online, as we get to see the origins of Mario's sinister double. His handheld games are some of the Game Boy generation's best efforts and it should be fun to see them get run, especially with a three-way race to kick it all off.

5:12PM - Super Mario 64
This is a Bonus Game incentive and one that hasn't been met just yet. But it's worth meeting, because Bubzia is ready to attempt to collect 16 Stars blindfolded! We're familiar with Bubzia, who ran the Super Smash Bros. 64 "Break the Targets" mini-game back at Summer Games Done Quick just a few months ago. This will not be one to miss, so open your hearts and your wallets and help meet this incentive.
Awesome Games Done Quick 2021 Online will take place from now through Saturday, January 9. For more, check out the Games Done Quick website and be sure to watch all of the action from Twitch.
