If your Wii dies and gets replaced, or for whatever reason you end up with a new Wii, all the money you spent on downloadable games is lost. You have to rebuy everything. Ouch. That's just not acceptable to me. I should be able to play downloaded games on any Wii, just as I can play disc-based games on any Wii. There has to be a way they can make this work, for instance perhaps they'd make it so you have to register the game on any new Wii in order to play it (register it once), and doing so unregisters it on any previously registered Wii. So you could move it around to different Wii's, but you'd have to prove ownership of the downloaded game to be able to do so. I.e. it would be tied to the account, and not to the physical Wii.
