According to a listing on Nintendo’s European website, Monster Hunter Generations takes up 12,534 blocks. That amounts to 1.56GB.

We’re expecting this size to translate similarly in North America. It may differ slightly (the Japanese version was 12,199 blocks / 1.49GB), but it should be right around 1.5GB.
