So, this website (getdisciplined.ca, also a subfolder on the NoC website) featured this dude named Les as he attempted to prevent himself from playing video games by.. uh.. exercising? He referred to it as "training", such as doing a handstand to "train" for Mario vs. Donkey Kong or swinging a golf club (and.. accidentally chucking it in the cameraman's face) to prep for Mario Golf: Advance Tour. This site was up in the early '00s, and featured 55 total diary entries over the course of 55 days (in addition to video footage to go with some of the aforementioned days).
Nintendo of Japan is known to leave up their stuff, but most English Nintendo sites (and non-English European ones, actually) take down their stuff after a short period.
The thing with Get Disciplined! is...
It's still up.
It takes five million years to load, but the site can still be accessed without even touching a web archive. The URL is http://www.nintendo.ca/getdisciplined/, and it works exactly as it did in the '00s.
There's two reasons that I'm making this thread. The first is that I think it's hysterical that this 22-year-old website is still functional, and the second is that Les posted a WarioWare video. This video was not captured by the Wayback Machine, though it is still presumably available on the live site. However, I cannot find it for the life of me. The other videos auto-download (at least, they do in the archive), but the WarioWare page - if and when it loads - doesn't. Does anybody know how to dig a MOV out of an HTML? I tried CTRL+F-ing the .HTML file, but I couldn't figure the heck out where it was.
Also, here's Les.
