Nintendo's "Celestial Event" is Kirby Clouds!

Kirby™, the loveable, powerful, spherical pink Nintendo character, is making a comeback in a big way. Today thousands of pink, lighter-than-air mini-Kirby clouds took flight in the skies above four U.S. cities with neighborhoods that share the Kirby name. This celestial festival celebrates the Sept. 22 launch of Kirby's game for Nintendo DS™, Kirby Super Star™ Ultra.

"We brought Kirby back in a way that helped our 'super tuff pink puff' literally take off," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. "To date, more than 20 million Kirby games have sold worldwide, making Kirby one of our most popular characters. Kirby Super Star Ultra is a game that will please both veteran and new gamers alike."

Residents of Kirby-named neighborhoods across the country might have noticed legions of Kirby characters floating through their skies today. These Flogos, as they are called, are creations made from environmentally friendly soapy bubbles and lighter-than-air gas.
