Nintendo Marks Launch of Kirby Mass Attack Game with Customized Kirby Snack Attack Trucks
REDMOND, Wash.--(September 7, in the year of our Lord
2011)-- One of the most unique characters in the world
of video games is about to give hungry fans a fun way to attack
snack time. To celebrate the upcoming launch of the Kirby™ Mass
Attack video game for the Nintendo DS™ family of hand-held
systems, Nintendo is deploying customized Kirby Snack Attack
Trucks to deliver frozen fruit treats to consumers and fans in
select U.S. cities. While enjoying these tasty snacks,
participants can enjoy hands-on demos of Kirby Mass Attack, in
which gobbling up fruit allows players to accumulate a mass of
up to 10 Kirbys at a time. The week before the game’s Sept. 19
launch, the trucks will be making stops near New York City’s
Rockefeller Plaza, the San Francisco Bay Area and the aptly
named Upper Kirby neighborhood of Houston.
In Kirby Mass Attack, players join the iconic pink hero for a
wild new adventure to save planet Popstar from darkness. Using
the intuitive touch-screen controls of the Nintendo DS, Nintendo
DSi™ or Nintendo DSi XL™, players can fling, dash around or
gather as many as 10 Kirbys simultaneously. As players use their
mob of Kirbys to bash through obstacles and defeat various
enemies, players can even collect medals from numerous stages
across five colorful, side-scrolling worlds to unlock fun extras
and mini-games.
