Nintendo of America has been slipping those "Register your Software" codes into their first party games for a few years now, but the people who do so have not been rewarded with much. There have been nowhere near as many free goodies offered in North America as there have been in Japan.
Well the customer service site just threw us a bone with this offer.
Nintendo wants to get to know our fans better through a special Big Brain Academy survey program. All you need to do is register your copy of Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree, and fill out a quick survey to get a free Wii Remote keychain. Click here to find out more!
This keychain is most likely the same light up keychain that was given to the press at the recent event held in Seattle.
Thanks to UncleBob in the forums for the heads up.

That's the secret link you can use to see what promos Nintendo has going on. Check it often.

I know that. I didn't say you get it with the package.

Besides, you're just mad because I've had it less than 24 hours and I've already beaten all your scores besides your main test score (which I've only taken once - and that was the initial time without reading the mini-game instructions).

Yeah for UncleBob seeing Mario Party 8 as a great game. I've had a blast with it.

I know this message was for Pale, but after reading this I decided to play the balloon game first tonight. I unlocked Expert by upping my silver to a gold on Hard. I played Expert and got gold on my first attempt! It was a close one. I got 307g for 100% in 1min58sec.
While I do agree that this should have been a budget title, I like it a lot so far and I don't regret my purchase.

I bought the game yesterday, haven't played it yet though. So I'll be getting a keychain!

You choose who you send it out to. I just sent it to everyone though.
