I've been using the same origin account and the same sims 3 cd for a few years now and today when i tried to launch the game it said that i couldn't, I looked at the log for sims 3 and it said that i needed to register my game which i went to do but it didn't work
I used to have an account on thesims3.com but something happened to it and only now It's affecting me because I couldn't register it on my now new account.
I really need help because I don't want to have to buy a new game when I've already bought one and I want to be able to play but I'm unsure if I'll want to continue if I'm going to have to buy the base game again.

@ida_ipad123 Sims 3 codes can't be registered a second time, even by the original owner. So it's no surprise that you couldn't register yours.
Does Sims 3 show as owned in your Origin game library? How old is the disc you're using? Please check the copyright date on the back of the case, and let me know whether you see an Origin logo anywhere on the case.

@puzzlezaddict Sims 3 does show as owned in my origin game library, The disk is about maybe 4-5 years old. I don't know about the copyright date since I don't know what it is but there is an origin logo on the back

I actually tried to buy the game again but it didn't work, it was a good thing that I bought it from g2a for like 2-3 dollars
