INTERVIEW OPPORTUNITIES:
...Well this is quite a predicament. Only two days notice on the event, and it's scheduled to be right in the middle of a school day... ...Listen up, anyone and everyone that lives in one of the listed four states! Beg your parents to let you skip school on Thursday to go to this Kirby eve-*smacked* On a more serious note, I will try my best to see if I can get to one of the locations to report what exactly will go on at this event! (It's probably just going to be a demo tent/booth/whatever set up for Kirby Super Star Ultra, but...) | |

| Lol at that. By the way, Kissa, all the places contain the word Kirby, and it's by Nintendo, so everyone assumes that it will be about our favorite pink puff. However, maybe that's just a detour to surprise everyone; maybe, it's some long lost character from some video game nobody's ever heard of. Or, maybe not. I think it's about this Kirby. Also, it talks about space and the stars, which seems to be a recurring theme in Kirby, so it leads me to the conclusion that it's definitely about Kirby. Our Kirby. |

| Ojeez. I would assume it was just something like a booth or a bunch of Kirby cosplayers if it weren't for the "mile around" part and the "celestial event" part. It must be something to do with the sky... A bunch of Kirby cosplayers as bright pink fireworks burst in the sky? |

| Someone needs to take pictures and videos and stuff. All those places are too far away and it's at school time. That also excludes fireworks and other things you see at night. So what is it going to be exactly? |

| I'm praying this is Kirby Wii. Yeah, it's probably Super Star Ultra since this is a Nintendo of America event, but... "emergence of a luminous entity"? Perhaps the new plot for the Wii game? Maybe this is where they'll finally make a definite announcement? Obviously I'm looking far ahead into this, and my expectations are literally in the stars. But I'd laugh if this turned out to be the truth! |

| Wowza, I'd take all the video you wanted if you payed the airfare to america. :P Besides, we all know it's going to be a booth of kirby cosplayers who will then be fired into the sky AS FIREWORKS! mwahahahahhahahaaaa! |

| Wha...? Yeah, someone definately needs to tell us what this is all about. -_-' I live on the West Coast, and somehow I don't think I'll be able to make it there... Sounds like big fun, though! I envy you East Coast people! |
