Majesco’s throwing a Hello Kitty Party, and all DS owners are invited

Majesco has decided the best way for the company to honor Hello Kitty’s 35th anniversary is by bringing joy to DS-owning children and Hello Kitty fans with Hello Kitty Party. The game, which will be released November 23, 2009 in North America and is already out in Europe, is a mini-game collection starring Hello Kitty and a number of other iconic Sanrio characters.

The game features Hello Kitty and characters like Keroppi, Badtz Maru, Cinnamon Roll, My Melody, Kuromi, the Twin Stars and some rabbits that I don’t recognize. There are 25 mini-games included and, based on the screenshots, it appears that Hello Kitty isn’t the star of them all. Keroppi, Cinnamon and the Twin Stars all seem to have their own games in the screenshots, so perhaps all of the Sanrio characters will have their own mini-game.

Yes, it looks incredibly simplistic, but kids love these kinds of games. It’ll probably end up being popular among little girls this holiday season. Parents, grandparents, etc will see Hello Kitty on the cover, the “Everyone” ESRB rating and the notice about 25 mini-games being included and will pick it up figuring it’d be a perfect gift.

Seriously though, does anyone recognize the three additional bunny characters in the screenshot at the right? I know I’ve seen the pastel patchwork rabbit character and just can’t recall its name, but I’ve never seen the white and pink and brown and beige bunnies before.
