Yeah, if you pirate and whatever… fair enough. Don’t expect Nintendo to want to deal with you. But at least you know that is the risk you’re taking.

The other group of people this will impact are those who dump (legally) their own games so that they don’t have to swap out carts all the time. It’s also going to suck for those who pick up a second hand console to find that their online access is restricted. I don’t see an issue with Nintendo blacklisting a device from their services should it go against their ToS, but this just seems way too easy of a trap to walk into.
