Transfer Mii from Wii U to the virtual Wii on the same console

Transfer Mii from Wii U to the virtual Wii on the same console - Boy in virtual reality helmet playing joystick

I spent many hours crafting the perfect Mii for my Wii U console. Then I run the virtual Wii mode on that console. I was hoping my Mii would appear there too, but it doesn't. Is there any way to copy the Mii from the Wii U mode to the Wii mode on the same console?

Note: There are a lot of similar questions on here about transferring Miis from a physical Wii to/from a Wii U console, or virtual Wii, but I can't find a question that refers to transferring Miis between the two modes on the same console.
