Virtual Console is not part of WiiWare. The maximum game size allowed on WiiWare is 40 MB.

Let's Golf 3D takes up about 196 MB. Not sure if that's the limit or not, assuming there is a limit.

Edit - Let's Golf 3D isn't even a WiiWare release. It's a E-Shop game for the 3DS, a system with 2 gigs of internal memory (4 times that of the Wii).

Oops. Forgot to mention it was a 3DS eShop title.

You didn't need to; it was clear from the context. Atariboy edited the quoted text and managed to confuse himself in the process. Here's the original text, edited but keeping consecutive text intact:

Maybe the size limit thing is also why this isn't coming to 3DS. I don't know the 3DS limits, though.

To me, anyway, it seems obvious from this that you were talking about a 3DS eShop game.

The dangers of quote editing!

I wasn't out to intentionally portray him as saying something he didn't intend. I thought at the time that I had quoted the relevant portions to keep it short and sweet. I just didn't notice until now that you had just speculated about size limits keeping it away from the 3DS, which he was responding to.

I just innocently intepreted his reply incorrectly. That's all.

Meant to reply to this earlier but forgot. In my earlier post, I was intending to attribute your post to misinterpretation, not intentional misportrayal. Specifically, that editing quoted text can lead to the guy doing the editing himself misreading what someone else wrote. I hope no one read my post as an accusation of ill intent.
