I see that happen a lot on YouTube with music files people post, and then a few months later they're gone.
I recall watching some YouTube TV show reruns on a friend's smart TV but it was a pain in the arse because the TV wasn't smart enough to accept a keyboard input (for typing in YouTube searches). Many are keyboard compatible nowadays.

Are you looking for games for your TV or computer? One would think the NBA Live game CDs would be available used on ebay or Craig's list pretty cheap.
Hope you find something that works for you. Perhaps you have a friend that has a TV game unit or some computer game disks they're not using you could borrow.

It appears to me to be very risky.
