'''Wii VC Round-To-Zero''' is a special phenomenon caused by emulation inaccuracy exclusive to Wii Virtual Console (Wii VC). This is a new glitch discovered on May 28, 2018, that contributes to the [[A Button Challenge]]. | '''Wii VC Round-To-Zero''' is a special phenomenon caused by emulation inaccuracy exclusive to [[Virtual Console|Wii Virtual Console]] (Wii VC).

In the Wii Virtual Console, it is possible to raise the moving platform at the beginning of [[Bowser in the Fire Sea|BitFS]], due to a rounding error that is unique to the Wii Virtual Console. It is believed this happens because the Wii doesn't round-to-nearest with floating point numbers, as the N64 does, but instead rounds-to-zero. Since the moving platform is below 0, it tends towards it. It is possible to [[Abbreviations|DR]] in about 8 days, and it is possible to [[Vertical Speed Conservation|VSC]] with a lava boost in 3 days. | In the Wii Virtual Console, it is possible to raise the moving platform at the beginning of [[Bowser in the Fire Sea|BitFS]], due to a rounding error that is unique to the Wii Virtual Console.
