Only one game at the moment, but if the promotion applies to the first game I can pick up one and get a second for almost nothing. But if the first purchase didn't count I'd be SOL.
If you own the console, what you'll do is register your NNID. Then, about 24 hours after you make your first eShop purchase, you can go to the website - https://p.nintendo.net/deluxe/ - and get your stuff set up.
What will happen then is, every time you buy a game from the eShop on that console, it'll "remember" it. You go to that website, and you can redeem points equal to one-tenth the dollar amount paid (before any taxes) for the games, in 500-point bundles, for an equal dollar amount to be put in your eShop wallet.
As an example, I bought NSMBU and AC3 off the eShop for $59.99 each. Then, I went to the website and saw that I had received 599 points per game, for a total of 1198. As such, I was able to redeem two 500-point bundles, for ten bucks added to my Wii U eShop wallet. I was then able to buy Nano Assault Neo for $9.99 for "free," which added another 99 points to my account, where it will stay until I can get another 500 points to redeem for $5.
Make sense?
