Sounds like a nice attempt to squeeze money from people by forcing them to go through Nintendo and get a repair or replacement.

People need to be able to just buy a new console and sign in on that like can on PS3/360.

You don't have to pay for this type of service though.

If your console bricks, they'll replace it for free.  There's no money involved at all.
