Right, but to download your 360 game onto your X1 you have to first insert the disc into the system. Taken from the official Xbox site:

"For disc-based games that are a part of the Back Compat game catalog, simply insert the disc and the console will begin downloading the game to your hard drive"

Yes right now they work the same way as X1 physical games you need the disc to dowload them and the disc in the drive to play them but I'm sure they will be added to the marketplace eventually.  Also a lot of those games will be titles that where digital only on the 360 also like Shadow Complex, and Super Meat Boy.

Then we would have to re-purchase those games with the Xbox One Mini since there wouldn't be anyway for the console to verify that we have the games already. Right?

Kinda like what we already do with the PSOne/Two classics on PSN.
