I was recently told to use bootmii to backup my save files and the digital games (VC/WW) before using the Wii/WiiU's transfer software apps. This way i could pick and choose the parts I want to stay on my wii, while i outright move the others to the newer console. Here is the link for verification:

If anything I'm describing or anything written at the location of that link is a mistake or is just wrong, please let me know so that I can fix it. I've gotten bootmii, and installed it with the hackmii installer. I ran a scan on the IOS' and then put the results through modmii and took all the updated WADs i needed and successfully installed all of them. I booted up bootmii afterward and hit that option to backup the NAND. After a short while (while the grid is filled with green blocks from left to right as it scans)I got thinking this cannot possibly be everything. Am i truly backing up all ~0.5Gb of legal content thats on the wii or was there a misunderstanding? My next move is to use the transefer software to transfer all the content from the Wii to the Wii U, then do a recovery with the wii using bootmii to bring back all the software i just lost on it.
edit: I'm only asking for verification on this matter so there are no misunderstandings once i begin this process... as you know the transfer software is a 1 shot deal and doesnt go the other way. I need to have all my ducks in a row so there are no surprises.
