And lo did the mighty Nostalgia Gods of Geekdom bring forth from Heaven a gift that no man dare dream could be. A blinding light of awesomeness many generations believed was mere myth. Today that myth has been proved reality. Our prayers have been answered. It is time to clear your DVD shelf, for our long, arduous, faith-testing wait has come to and end. Captain N: The Gamemaster, the fated son of 80’s Saturday Morning Cartoons, he who was sucked into the world of Nintendo to fight the villains of kick ass 80’s NES games (and hailed from the mighty land of Northridge, 818 represent!), has returned. And his journey was not in vain.
His renaissance gives relief to millions of kids who grew up on tales of his daring do in the mystical land of, um, Videoland, but neglected to capture this beauty on tape. One can only hope that this artistic resurrection will lead to the coming of the other great golem of classic animation. That being, of course, the legend of the Prostars!
So shall it be written, so shall it be boughten on February 27th.
Bangarang!

I already own the set and love this set, plus i recently picked up Captain N & The New Super Mario World. Its too bad it ended with only 7 newer episodes.
