Wilbrand, like LetterBomb, is an exploit for the Wii that is triggered using the Wii Message Board.

Unlike LetterBomb, Wilbrand supports Wii menu versions down to 3.0.
{: .notice--info}

There are two methods listed on this page used to create the proper Wilbrand exploit. Wilbrand Web is recommended for its ease of use.
{: .notice--info}

### Wilbrand Web (Recommended)

#### Requisitos

- An SD card formatted to FAT32/MS-DOS
- A Wii on at least version 3.0

SD cards larger than 2GB will not work on Wii menu versions before 4.0.
{: .notice--warning}

#### Instrucciones

1.  On your Wii, go to `Wii Settings`, and make note of the version at the top right. Proceed to `Internet` -> `Console Information` and also make note of your MAC address.
1.  Visit [wilbrand.donut.eu.org](https://wilbrand.donut.eu.org/), input your Wii MAC, version, region, ensure `Bundle the HackMii Installer for me!` is checked, and cut either wire. ![Wilbrand Web](/images/wilbrand/web.png)
1.  Click on "Download your .zip".
1.  Extrae el contenido del archivo ZIP recién descargado a la raíz de la tarjeta SD.
1.  Expulsa la tarjeta SD e insértala en tu Wii.
    - La tarjeta SD debe insertarse en la ranura para tarjetas SD ubicada en la parte frontal de la consola. No es posible usar un adaptador USB conectado a alguno de los puertos USB de la consola.
1.  En tu consola, ingresa al tablón de Wii.
1.  Load the green letter with the Bob-omb icon.
    - Asegúrate de que la fecha en tu Wii sea correcta, pues de lo contrario podrías ser incapaz de encontrar la carta.
    - The mail may have appeared on the previous or next day.
    - If you don't see the green letter, check if any errors appear in the SD card sections in `Data Management`. If any do, there may be an issue with the SD card format or the Wii's SD card reader. ![Wilbrand in its natural habitat](/images/wilbrand/msgboard.png)

If this didn't work for you, [try another exploit](get-started) or try [Wilbrand CLI](#wilbrand-cli).
