Players who plan to download this game will need to make room for the bananas. DKCR 3D will be the second biggest eShop game so far. It will be 17693 blocks! That's about 2.2 GB! Its bigger than Monster Hunter 3, which is 14284. If you have a 2 GB SD, you're screwed. If you have a 4 GB, you might have some space. If you have a 8 GB or higher, it won't be as bad, but retail is recommender.

Well, I know which version I'm getting.

That's gonna at least take 8 hours to download.

Doesn't affect me, as I'm not getting it.

But, it's good they compressed it, the Wii version was over 3 gigs.

What did you expect from a console port? You should be thankful it was compressed.

I can only imagine how much Tales of the Abyss would be.

The story takes 30 hours atleast if you rush, +50 hours with akll the crap you can do.

Exactly. That's the point.

@T1G-Length has nothing to do with block size.

I understand, but with the amount of areas, enemies, textures and crap, its huge.
