On both my Wii and my GameCube, the game is getting disc read errors out of the

Hmmm... weird. Is the disc all scratched? What they're supposed to do when they take a game back is look at the disc and if it's scratched they charge a small fee and send it out to get refurbished. That was always fun...

Me: Your disc is completely scratched up. Gonna take $2 off the price.
Them: Yo man it works good!
Me: Funny, I still don't care.
Them: This is bullshit.

Happened about half the time ;)

It doesn't look that bad, really. There was some gunk around the hole in the middle, a lot of which I was able to clean off, and roughly the inner fourth of the disc is scratched a fair bit, but the rest of the disc looks okay. I used some of my glasses lens cleaner on it, and that seemed to help quite a bit, at least for removing the gunk. It is still getting the disc read error even after that though, but it's not like it's doing it half way through the opening movie every time anymore like it was when I first tried it.
