Of course it's free. You don't pay to get Club Nintendo. You're rewarded for buying games, and giving feed back. You don't by games because you want Club Nintendo points. You buy a game and think "gee, now I can redeem some club Nintendo points." With PS Plus, you're deliberately and intentionally subcribing to a service with money. You pay for PS Plus every year because you want online and discounted games and such.
With Club Nintendo, you do no such thing. You create a free Club Nintendo account with expectation that you will get more milage from the purchase you already made. It absolutely is free.
