Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.

BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.

I remember getting the SNES and this game as a kid. I think I had some help with my family learning the game at first, but I ended up playing through most of it.
Pokémon blue was such a good game!! It was what got me into video games & started me on the path to being the massive geek I am today! Absolutely love it, can still name the original 151
I had chronic allergies as a kid and could hardly go outside without needing to go to the hospital and my dad had been a gamer long before I came along. One day he had convinced my mom to get a PlaySt...more
I remember when I got this before I got my new Xbox, I sat and read the case to the game every day in anticipation. My mom didn’t like the language, so I had to play with subtitles and the sound off...more
A long long time ago (few months ago) I beat a game called Super Mario Bros. It's pretty obscure not many people know about it but for years I'd just play online games this is the first actual Game I ...more
I played PC games before it was considered cool, but all I ever really had were demo discs and such. Technically I beat those first, but since they were not full-release games, I don't count those Nev...more
This was actually the first game my family ever owned, and it took some time, I was 8 or 9, but I remember finally making it to the end and being so proud that I'd made it.
My dad and I were racing to see who could beat it first. I remember beating it one day while he was at work and I had mom take a picture of it as proof. This was way, waaaayyyy before digital camera...more
I had a habit of jumping from game to game back in the day 😅 and save files weren't always a thing. I remember beating SMB3 all the way through, co-op with my slightly older cousin, cause otherwise...more
This is the first game (that I can remember) beating allll the way through without quitting.
I was 13, from a very conservative family, and on some odd multiverse type phenomenon my grandmother got...more
I'd like to know how long it took 6 year old me to win the Super Bowl in Tecmo Bowl.
Unless you count winning the grand prize in Family Feud as beating all the way through, it was Family Feud.
When I was 7 or 8, my older cousins were in High School and staying at our house for the weekend. My mom let us stay up all night playing through Mario 3, and we beat it just as the sun was coming up....more
The first game that I picked out. I remember playing the first level on an old demo console in a store, then at christmas asking for and receiving this game. I still think about this series of games f...more
I had a green Gameboy Pocket and this game on a cross country road trip. The ending is so satisfying! One of the most underrated Mario games. Great OST, underwater levels with a torpedo-shooting subma...more
Absolutely loved this game! The first time I beat Andross I started sprinting around the living room in excitement. Nothing quite like the hours spent on this game!
I believe was Kirby, my first console was a Snes but never finished a game, after I got a N64 can't remember which was my first game but I know that I finished this one before Ocarina of Time
I know there were games that I beat before this, but this was the first time I remember wanting to complete a game 100%. I remember the 119 and 120th stars I got and it was collecting the red coins/1...more
I had the Dk64 system package with the jungle green system and controller for Christmas one year. I felt pretty committed to beating it and finally did.
My parents didn't allow us to have video game systems until we could afford to buy them myself - so the Gamecube was my first real system.
Before that, we had to rent N64s from Blockbusters! haha
So...more
Had to leave the NES on overnight, because I was stuck on the last level. I hid it with a blanket because my mom would have turned it off if she saw it. Glad the house didn't burn down.
My brother and I spent approximately 10000 tokens doing it. I'm pretty sure our parents are still paying off whatever loan they had to take out to cover us. Or maybe our real parents are in debtors pr...more
Beating this was difficult as a ~10 yo but once I did I was so proud that I showed my dad lmao. When I opened the game again afterwards it showed the boss as not defeated (so that the player could kee...more
I definitely beat Super Mario 3 when I was like 3 or 4 cause my older brother told me that I taught him how to do it, but don't really remember doing that. Definitely remember beating Super Mario Worl...more
I beat this game all the way through, had about 50 Pokémon at level 100, and then my brother taught me about the "Glitch Pokémon" This further escalated getting all of my Pokémon to level 100. I di...more
First game I ever played with an actual story was Pokémon Diamond. I vividly remember that I beat the Elite 4 and Champion with only a level 88 infernape because at the time I didn't know catching Po...more
Pkmn Diamond was the first game I had on DS and the first game I had ever completed. I still remember first evolving my Grotle into the gnarly Torterra he is today. I named him Speedy and I still have...more
I didn't do this alone. I had a friend in the neighborhood and I remember spending HOURS in his living room arguing about who's turn it was. I don't exactly remember the moment we beat it. But I remem...more
Since we only had 1 TV in the house I had to wake up early to play Nintendo. I remember waking my father up around 6am on a Saturday when I finally beat this game. Amazing feeling
When I think of the amount of life I invested into this as a young boy, I am a little frustrated with myself - but it cemented both my love of platformer games, as well as gave me most of my game skil...more
I'll fully admit that warp whistles were involved but they had to be back in the day.
My first 100% complete was definitely Mario 64.
My first Platinum Trophy was Lego Marvel Super Heroes hahaha.
First game I ever owned and played it sooo much. First time I beat this game I used the shortcut pipes, but I did eventually beat it all the way through. I was so pumped
I posted in my review but I excitedly called my grandma to tell her I rescued the princess after beating this. I’m sure she had no concept of what video games were, and probably responded “that’...more
I may have beat others, but this one stands out because I HAD to leave my Genesis on for 3 or so weeks to finish it. The cartridge’s battery had broken loose and all saves would erase when you shut ...more
This was one of the first games that I remember playing that had "an end". I played a lot of things like DR. Mario. Mario Kart. TMNT Tournament Fighters. This was the first one of the Mario games I ac...more
I'm certain that I beat other games before this one. But I have very distinct memories of staying up all night to beat this one with my brother. I'm pretty certain we used a Game Genie.
