On a 73-day trip from the base of Mt. Everest, up to its summit, and back down again, Chris Grubb and Neal Mueller made history by making the #NintendoDS the first video game system to be played atop Earth's tallest mountain above sea level.

According to their July 2005 interview with Gamespy, the pair played Madden NFL 2005, Super Mario 64 DS, and Metroid Prime Hunters - First Hunt as their entertainment. Although some of their equipment had faults with the mountain environment, the DS held firm throughout. In fact, they had 10 units!
