Nintendo to attempt world record for Kirby's 20th anniversary

SEATTLE — Nintendo plans to mark the 20th anniversary of its pink, puffy Kirby character with a world-record attempt at "the most people blowing a chewing gum bubble simultaneously," GeekWire reports.

The attempt will take place Saturday afternoon at the Penny Arcade Expo (aka PAX) in Seattle.

Kirby made his debut in 1992's Kirby's Dream Land on GameBoy, which was followed up the next year by Kirby's Adventure on the NES. A collection of six classic Kirby games is scheduled to be released for the Wii on September 16.
