At the Penny Arcade Expo next week, Nintendo are going to attempt a Guinness World Record with Kirby fans… for most people blowing a chewing gum bubble at once.

The current record stands at 304 people. On September 1st, Nintendo will attempt to gather more than that number of people, and have them help break the record in celebration of Kirby’s 20th anniversary.

Also marking Kirby’s 20th anniversary will be Kirby’s Dream Collection: Special Edition for the Wii, which includes the first six Kirby games and a bunch of special challenge stages. That’s slated for a September 16th release.

Food for thought:

Earlier this year, the Wii Balance Board broke the Guinness World Record for best-selling personal weighing device.
