Everyone's favorite pink vaccum of death will be celebrating his 20th anniversary this year. Nintendo plans to celebrate the 20 years of Kirby by releasing a collection of his most popular games, also hoping that they can get 305 people together to chew some gum.

The folks over at Joytstiq explain, "It shakes out like this: At 1 p.m. Pacific on September 1, Nintendo will try and round up at least 305 people at the PAX Prime Expo Hall Queue Area to beat the world record for "Most People Blowing a Chewing Gum Bubble Simultaneously," which is currently 304 people. An official Guinness adjudicator will be on site to verify the attempt's success or failure."

Sure, why not. What's the worst that can happen? Nintendo sets the world record for most people choking to death in one room at the same time?
