Now if you've only used LetterBomb to softmod I bet a pound to a pinch of s**t you haven't done a NAND backup thats the very first job you do after softmodding. NAND backup

No it won't LetterBomb is only the softmod you need to use any of the 3 main USB Loaders - USB Loader GX, CFG USB Loader or WiiFlow. These can be on the SD card and you can install the Forwarder wads to give you the channels on the Wii menu.

Before these will run you have to install at least one cIOS249 wad with a WAD Manager or MMM. There are plenty of tutorials on here.

Then you need to find a suitable mains powered external USB hard drive to put the games onto.

Then you backup any original games you have, each USB Loader has a button to Install the game to the HDD.
