    because you have reached your download limit! ;)

    i'm not sure how many downloads you can have per day, but i know that there is a set download for free members (points) and guests.

    Maybe you download to much big files and run out of points?

    Are you logged in on the main site? Guests have a download limit, users are only limited by your points.

    If you are using a program to download games from the site, make sure it has your login info, otherwise it may be trying to download as a guest.

    This is happening to me too and I have only downloaded one game today.

    It has never happened before and somedays i would download ten games.

    I am a full member and I have more than enough points!

    Why is this coming up? :-\

    This site uses a point system so you can't overload it with large downloads.


    So many people are downloading so they need it-if it's just small ds games then this is odd, if your downloading ps1 games...or gamecube.,..THAT IS YOUR ANSWER!

    Also you should be able to check your points-if it's on zero sit back and wait.

    I forgot when the points recharge..but same deal-big games or small ds games?

    I'm locking this until I can look into it, I don't need further feedback.

    Hiya- I'm just wanting to add my voice as this is happening to me too.
    I have checked my home page and have loads of points, and was surprised to see my download for this period being 12 ( I think)- I definitely haven't downloaded that many and think it classed it everytime I tried to re-download due to it not working the 1st, 2nd or 3rd time.
    I too have been a member for a good couple of months and have never had this problem.
    It started last night so thought i would give it a rest but the same is happening now.
    I dont know what to do.
    Any advice?

    Nothing you can do. You have to wait for me to get it fixed.

    maybe you ran out of internet. or your internet plan has time restrictions like peak and off-peak. Just making suggestions.

    No. I've already verified that it's a bug, there's no reason to come with potential suggestions.
