It’s true that the Nintendo Network ID you create on your Wii U can only be accessed on the original console. Heck, not even Nintendo customer support can transfer it over to a new unit.
Giant Bomb’s Patrick Klepek attempted to contact the company about a possible switch. They’re looking into the situation, but Klepek said “it does not look optimistic.”
That does make you wonder what would happen if your console went kaput or was stolen. What if you downloaded a ton of digital content? How would you retrieve the games?
