So today I found the entire Shin Godzilla movie for free online with no downloads or anything
Is that piracy?

Also, I just realized in the Lorax that the people of Thneedville straight up kill O'Hare because he has a different opinion then them. That's gotta be anarchy or something, right?

Just finished re-reading most of the Final Fantasy IX script online. Not as much fun as actually playing the game again, but still, good memories. Too bad the discs are having problems now. (I know it's available on the PS3 store, but that's... well... the PS3 store. Not worth the trouble these days.)

*Remembers Wii U disc drive is broken so I can't even play it*

How'd you manage that?

Okay I really need to vent about my "pleasant" experience with my Wii U:

so about a year ago while I was playing Smash Bros one night, the game suddenly cut out and gave me an error message stating "There is a problem with the disc drive. For more information, got to nintendo.com./support" complete with a error code and everything. I kind of freaked out about this, but the next day my console started working again, no problem. I decided to just shrug it off and think it was a fluke.

As the months went by, I periodically got the same error message with the disc stopping in the drive. Eventually, it got to the point where I started getting the error message very frequently. Then, once the summer started, I couldn't get anything to play.

Every single time I got the message, I did everything to get my console to work, and after a matter of time these methods just stopped working. I would tilt the console a bit and then it would run just fine: that stopped working after a while. I would reposition the console: that also stopped. I blew on all the air ducts on it, I blew into the disc drive, I unplugged the console and replugged it, I powered it on using the eject button, I would hit the eject button a number of times before putting the game in, it even got to the point where I had to start hitting and pounding the console in order to get the game to run. All of that eventually stopped working.

So I had a couple options:

-I could send it in to Nintendo, but I ultimately decided not to do that since they can't assure I would still have all my save data and accounts and whatnot, and the Wii U's stuff is hardware based instead of cloud based like the 360 or PS3, meaning if something went wrong while they were fixing the console, I lose everything. I have to create a brand new, separate account on this new console and start all over again. Plus the cost to get it repaired and sent in is a little under buying a whole new console as far as i'm aware.

-I could buy a new Wii U console and transfer everything. This is one method I have to hold off because money is tight for me. Plus, i would need a brand new console in order for the process to work; I can't just get a console replacement, I would have to get a new gamepad and everything too.

-I could buy a replacement disc drive, but again, I didn't want to risk destroying or harming any of the internal hardware.

My only other option was to buy a Wii U disc cleaning kit and just hope that would fix the problem. So this past weekend I finally got around to buying one, and big shock, the cleaning kit didn't do anything.

So now I have a console that can't run disc drive games. Which is extremely irritating. Now I can't replay any of the games I bought unless I get a new console(which I can't do at the moment) or just buy the games over again on the eShop. I did do this with Pokken Tournament, since it's the game I had been playing most often beforehand and it's a game I want to get into the competitive scene with, but I can't even do it with my other games because of the Wii U's crappy memory(and, again, money stuff). Smash Bros alone takes up half of the console's space.
