By importing your NAND backup into Dolphin, you effectively copy everything on your Wii (at the time of the backup). This also has the benefit of allowing access to [Wiimmfi](https://wiimmfi.de/), as well as carrying over RiiConnect24 patched channels. If you have already done this, consider the SaveGame Manager GX method to save time. {: .notice--info}
