I can't download a Website with linked archive file exactly like I want

Hi, I use Wget since years for basic individuals download. I knew that it was able to mirror Website but never had the need for this. This changed a few months ago, and by reading the documentation and making lots of tests and retries, I succeeded in obtaining the results I was expecting. Wget is amazingly powerful, but, well, I won't teach you anything by saying that the learning curve is a little hard...

And so this time, I'm forced to ask for help because I'm stuck. Let's consider I want to download <https://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/extras/copyroms/index.html> and the archive files linked inside. I first used one of the usual Wget commands I built during time, with notably -np parameter, and no luck. I finally wrote the command "cd /tmp ; d="complements" ; mkdir $d ; cd $d ; wget -c -d -I /c/minivmac/extras,/d/minivmac/extras -m -k -K -E -nH --cut-dirs=3 -p https://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/extras/copyroms/index.html 2> /tmp/sortiewget" The hierarchy I obtain is perfect, but I still doesn't get the archive files. I read again and again the documentation and *it should work*!

The "sortiewget" output is more than 2 MB wide, so I xzed it, I suppose by now in 2021 you all have xz installed so you would be able to find why Wget isn't damnly following links in this peculiar situation, thanks a lot!
