Yeah anime DVDs are usually pretty expensive.  I rewatched the original Star Blazers back when I first got Netflix.  This was back when I played a lot of 360 in its heyday.  I don't know if it's on there anymore, as that was a very long time ago.  Rewatching it again, I'd have to say that was a surprisingly dark cartoon to release in the US back in the late 70's!  But then, I only watched it as a little kid because it had spaceships in it.  Little Cary was pretty easily amused.  Heck, I watched The Dukes of Hazzard simply because it had cars jumping over ramps.  

Well it was certainly the classic look that drew me to request a review code for Awesome Pea 2.  Not really big on the super hard gameplay, though.

I've been able to beat every Shantae game they've made, so they can't be TOO hard!

Well there's those Flashback Atari systems that have all those 2600 games on them that you just plug up to your TV.  But Atari is also planning to make a new console called the VCS.  I'm curious about it, but I doubt it'll do well.

Right now I'm playing mostly Animal Crossing along with Mr. Driller Drill Land and Namco Museum Archives vol. 1 and 2.  Expect blogs on those last two (three) games sometime in July.

I tried to get into Costume Quest and just couldn't.  The themes were charming enough, but the battle system was just really not that good.  I hear there's a Costume Quest cartoon, though.  I'd like to see that.  A game I recently reviewed: Knights and Bikes, has a Costume Quest vibe to it.

Yes and I've been wanting it to come out over here ever since it was on the GameCube!

Did you know they made a new Star Blazers remake in Japan a few years ago?  It's called Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and I watched it on one of those anime Netflix style things.  I think it was Crispy Roll or something like that.

I'd buy the Pac-Man Minecraft thing for 7 bucks, but then I'd have to buy Minecraft as well and I don't need another game to get addicted to!

I didn't know PONG Quest was on Xbox One, too.  I think ti would also be a good game for that new Atari VCS console they keep hinting at coming out.  PONG Quest can be hard at times, but it's still doable if you're patient.  My favorite part was all the other classic Atari references!

I just saw on FaceBook that someone made a replica of Space Battleship Yamato on Minecraft.  You might know that better as Star Blazers, an anime from the late 70's.  Reminds me of the time when my brother Jeff showed me a world someone made in Minecraft that was full of towns and references from Studio Ghibli movies!

Hey, did you ever try the Minecraft Pac-Man add-on yet?  If it's free, please try it and tell me about it.  But if it costs money, don't worry about it.

Well the good thing is that if the new one is too expensive for you right now, there may be other ones that are cheaper and are just as fun.  My favorites are the orignal GBC Shantae and Shantae and the PIrate's Curse, but they are all good.  Just know that the GBC Shantae is a bit clunky since it's so old, and the sequel, Risky's Revenge, is a bit short since it was only a DSiWare title.
