HD isn't worthless, it just isn't worth the price that MS and Sony paid for it in 2005/2006. Once the tech is cheap enough to be included in a device which makes a profit at an MSRP of less than $300, it makes sense to support it. Lots of people like you and me don't much care, but there are marginal advantages to be had for a marginal price increase.
And then there are those for whom HD is a Very Big Deal. No reason for Nintendo to leave them out in the cold when it doesn't cost that much to satisfy them.
@ topic in general
I thought it was known that Nintendo's next console would be HD way back when the Wii launched. This isn't really news.
