Kirby no Omochabako: Arrange Ball is an arcade game developed by HAL Laboratory and released in 1996. It was published by Nintendo. It is available on Satellaview only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

In Kirby's Toy Box - Arranging Balls, the player is given the goal of launching spherical Kirbys into the nine holes occupied by Mr. Frostys. The player is given a certain number of Kirbys to launch, and the game ends when he/she runs out of Kirbys to shoot. The player can choose how much power to put into each shot. Points are awarded if the player lands three Kirbys in a row—the more rows the player completes, the more points he/she will earn. Like every other sub-game in Kirby's Toy Box, this game could only be downloaded by the Satellaview during the brief period it was broadcast.
