Nintendo not even having an account for you is one of the reasons why I don't buy games from their online stores. If they can't let me redownload my games if I need to, then I won't buy them in the first place.

Actually, you can redownload your games for free.

it's tied to the cosole though not to you.  if you wanted to upgrade to a newer model or replace one with a impending hardware failure you are SoL and loose all of your games.  360 and ps3 have ways to transfer your info should you choose to upgrade your hardware.
