This game offered me something of a revelation, which I don't think is listed among its official product features. But it occurred nonetheless. You see, I think part of the reason The Man approves of 70+ year copyright terms is because he can still make money off of simple arcade games like this. Tiny amounts of money, but still money. Perhaps enough to buy another champagne flute for the bar on his yacht, or pay his pool servant Julio for a full month. What's the connection here? Well, I guarantee you've already played Arkanoid, most likely on your cell phone in someplace boring, possibly in class on your snappy Texas Instruments graphics calculator, but almost certainly somewhere. Arkanoid is an exact clone of Atari's Breakout, made back in the 80s before they invented "copyright infringement."
