Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection
Letters containing items were sent out over the Internet to players who were connected to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection on specific distribution dates, with letters being distributed in North America, Europe, and Japan from 2005 to 2009.[5][6] These letters were usually distributed in celebration of an event, either in-game or in the real world, and they usually contained items that can be obtained elsewhere.
Two letters were unintentionally distributed to players over Nintendo WFC in North America: one was distributed in late November 2005[nb 1] and contained a test message[nb 2] and a Crown, and one was distributed on January 26, 2006 and contained a blank letter with a corrupted item known as Red Tulips attached. The latter item gained community attention due to it being received by many players and being glitched; if placed in a player's house, it will appear invisible and cannot be picked up, meaning the location it was placed is permanently occupied by it. Shortly after the distribution of the Red Tulips item, Nintendo of America issued an statement saying the letter was accidentally sent as a result of an internal error with the communication tool used to send out the letters. The statement also urged players who received the item to dispose of it in the recycle bin.[7]

Villagers
File:WW Monkey Villager Letter.jpg
The letter in the Note in a Bottle received after receiving one of the monkey villagers
Six monkey villagers–Champ, Elise, Monty, Nana, Simon, and Tammi–were distributed from DS Download Stations via Tag Mode. This was the only way for them to move to the player's town. When received by the game, the villager instantly moved in and a Note in a Bottle containing a message from Katrina; if there are already eight villagers in the player's town, the villager would be added to a queue and would move in when another one moves out.[8]
Bulletin board messages
Two bulletin board messages–one as a test–were distributed over the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. One was distributed at the same time as the test letter and contains a similar message, and one was distributed on February 14, 2006.[9]
Notes
- ↑ This letter was reportedly received by winners of a contest held by IGN who received the game prior to its December 5 release.[5]
- ↑ The letter read:Dear <player>,Thanks for your testing
