Pointless, really. I mean the 2DS is the same system with no clamshell and 3D and it is $40 cheaper.

This is the same system with no online (so you can't play MKWii or SSBB online or get VC or WiiWare games) no Gamecube games (missing out on a lot of good titles) and SD card support. For a price MORE EXPENSIVE then what you can get for most used Wiis.
