Ever since GeoIP broke for the Letterbomb site, 4.3E has been the region selected by default, and users have been thrown off by this. So I added an extra note explaining this and confirming that the user has chosen the proper region. Also added a note to step 6 about what could happen if the incorrect region is selected. Believe it or not, some users have had issues with Letterbomb because they thought a USB-SD adapter plugged into the Wii would still work. So added a note about that to step 4.

LetterBomb is an exploit for the Wii that is triggered using the Wii Message Board.
|
|
|
|
#### What you need
|
|
- An SD card that is no more than 32GB in size
|
|
- A Wii on System Menu version 4.3
|
|
|
|
#### Instructions
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. On your Wii, go to `Wii Settings` -> `Internet` -> `Console Information` and make note of your MAC address.
|
|
1. Visit [please.hackmii.com](https://please.hackmii.com), input your Wii MAC and region, complete the CAPTCHA, ensure `Bundle the HackMii Installer for me!` is checked, and cut either wire
|
|
- By default, the selected region is 4.3E (Europe), so if you are in a different region, you will have to select the correct one.
|
|
- Whichever wire you choose to cut doesn't matter.

|
|
1. Extract the contents of the downloaded ZIP to the root of your SD card.
|
|
1. Take out your SD card and insert it in your Wii.
|
|
- The SD card must be inserted in the SD card slot located in the front of the Wii. Using a USB adapter plugged into the Wii's USB port will not work.
|
|
1. On your Wii, return to the Wii Menu and then open the Wii Message Board.
|
|
1. Load the red letter with a bomb icon.
|
|
- Ensure the date on your Wii is correct, otherwise you might be unable to find the letter.
|
|
- In various scenarios, you may need to look at the previous or next day to find it.
|
|
- If you don't see the red letter, you may be using an unsupported SD card that's greater than 32GB in size.
|
|
- If your Wii freezes after clicking on the letter, you probably chose the wrong region when downloading the exploit. Redo Step 2 and select the correct region.
