In this thread I am going to compile tables showing the number of blocks different Wiiware and Virtual Console games take up, as well as Wii games saves and Wii channels.

In the begining I will be using figures from my own Wii, but I believe for certain channels it may be different for each person (specifically the internet channel takes up a different number of spaces depending on [I suspect] the number of favourites and/or cookies kept)

So for Wii ware and VC games people can post the number of blocks they take up (both channel and save files please) and I will add them to the table, and if any numbers are different to what others have for channels I will make an average column as well as a maximum column... The maximum should probably be close if not the same as the number it gives you before you download the channel/title.
You can find all the different numbers of blocks channels take in "Wii Options" > "Data Management" > "Channels".
And the number of blocks used for save files is in "Wii Options" > "Data Management" > "Save Data" > "Wii"

Total number of blocks in the Wii memory: 2176

Please if you add information for a VC or Wiiware game, give the number of blocks it takes up as a channel as well as those it takes up for save files.
Similarly if posting for Wii channels, give both bits of information but also anything else useful such as number of favourites on the internet channel, as well as whether you have deleted cookies recently, or for Mii Contest/Everybody votes say how many people use it (I have 2 Miis saved for E.votes)


Unless you have something different to the current numbers I don't want info on Wii game saves under 10 blocks.
