Here in the Search nav, you can.... SEARCH. Start typing a game or gamer, it will autosuggest. Press one to go, or hit Enter to get the full search results.
Below the searchbox, you'll see recent games, gamers, clubs, events, and quests you've visited.
Below that is the full site map with all of the different pages on this platform. Most of these are accessible in the other navs too. But here they're all in one place, if you're into that sort of thing.
Jump in a virtual or IRL event, tournament, or league. Participate in a Quest (a gaming challenge that you can do any time). Channel 3 has something for all skill levels, including gaming-focused daily minigames.
Go to Events below to search for real-time tournaments or other events. Quests will show you offline challenges you can complete at any time.
You may have friends here already, or you may meet your next lifelong squadmate here. Either way, Channel 3 is most fun when you find your people and can have friendly competitions and participate in challenges together.
Below you can navigate all the gamers, clubs, and causes on Channel 3.
If you'd like to create and run a Club, submit an New Club Request.
Whether it's 1 to 2, or 99 to 100, leveling up is the best feeling in the world. On Channel 3, when you participate in quests, when your post gets 1Up'd, when you crush a daily minigame, you get XP. Get 1k XP, and you level up and unlock rewards. Rewards can be custom reaction GIFs, cool backgrounds, or prize wheel spins for IRL gaming gear or in game currency.
Turbo is an optional subscription for superusers. You don't need Turbo to enjoy Channel 3. Turbo users get early access to new features, and are able to unlock more levels in a season.

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.
Tap Add on the prompt.
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.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
A while back I bought someone’s NES collection to flip. @codyb usually tests things before we sell it, but I did some of the testing for him. Honestly, I just wanted to show him how fast I could bea...more
I actually had to look up a list of release dates and hope I remembered, since I can barely remember what my wife told me to do 5 minutes ago.
This game was and is one of the only RPG games I playe...more
When my parents sold our childhood home, my siblings and I grabbed a bunch of things that of course got mixed up. My sister would randomly talk about wondering where her Barbie game went. Well 1 day I...more
I only had this (on the SMB/Duck Hunt cartridge) on the original NES.
Honorable mention to the original Legend of Zelda for being what I'm currently working on through the Nintendo Switch Online as...more
I played this for a quest very recently. Apart from that though, I’d have to guess Mario 3 is the last I’ve played on NSO or the NES Mini. I sold my NES as a kid, that was my parents rule if we wa...more
We're just gunna go with Adventure Island cause I truly have no idea what I stopped playing after I moved onto the genesis. I had a lot of NES games and shamedly traded a bunch in after I got my Genes...more
I don't remember exactly what I played before our NES eventually bit the dust/we moved on to newer systems, but I know I played this sucker a bunch, so this would be my best guess 😄 of course now I...more
I was addicted to this game back in the day. Had no clue what I was doing but I had fun. Crazy how me as 7 year old could barely play this and my three year old is slaying in Elden Ring.
Admittedly can't remember if this was actually the last one I played, but it was one of my favorites. Thanks to Nintendo Online my 6 year old son and I battle frequently.
We got nes super late into the game. We definitely purchased some older games along the way, but smb3 was probably one of the last released games we owned.
I'm pretty sure it would have been this one. I don't recall one after it, and it was definitely my favourite NES game!
It's also the most recent NES game I've played (except for maybe an odd one her...more
I’m gonna guess Super Off Road. I had to put some thought into this. We got a Sega Genesis one year for Christmas, I’m guessing it was 1992 because we got the Menacer light gun with ours. One o...more
I didn’t own a nes but my aunt and grandfather did so i only played it when visiting but that gold cartridge always entertained my eyes and it’s what i played besides paper boy and Mario but Zelda...more
I can't comprehend this question. I never stopped playing my NES because I didn't get another system until the 2000s. No Super Nintendo. No N64. No GameCube.
The idea of buying a new system every ...more
I thought it was super Mario bros 3 but I had to do a little research to determine it was Bart vs the world. I traded in my NES for a SNES that I still own (and played last night) so I know I didn’...more
I didn't play on the NES during it's original run, as I was born in '91, but this is the most recent NES game that I have played. It's a really fun game, if y'all haven't checked it out.
