If you don't go online then they won't detect you... and here's the problem, you want to use their online services with games you do not legally (debatable but you get my point) own. I'm not worried about Nintendo detecting the current entry, I find it unlikely that Nintendo will ban users for this. But, there will be other opportunities for Nintendo to detect evil do-ers on their online services.
Once people start running custom firmware, unlicensed applications and play copied games online you can bet your life on it that Nintendo has ways to detect it. Yes, every pirate is setting themselves up to be banned. This has always been the nature of the game and always will be. The question is not 'is it going to happen?' the question is 'when will the banwave happen?' and 'are you going to get caught up in it?'. Users can only minimize the risk of being banned but there's no way to make it 0%.
Not getting banned starts with avoiding obvious stupid stuff like going online before a game has launched (Pokemon Sun/Moon), editing your save file to make impossible stuff happen (Fire Emblem Fates) or running custom applications while being connected to official servers (the PS3 scene). There will always be people who don't learn from history and they are doomed to repeat it, just make sure that you're not one of them and you'll be fine for the most part.
