Eh, it's basically a rewards program with fairly decent returns (at least in the U.S.). The rewards are rarely mind-blowing, but it's a decent way to get extra digital games: buy three qualifying retail games, fill out the surveys, and you'll probably have enough coins to get one or two of the monthly Nintendo VC/WiiWare/eShop games that they're offering on a rotating basis. I got Super Punch-Out!!, Starship Defense, Metroid II, and a few other games this way.
Basically, it's nothing mind-blowing, or worth switching allegiances over by itself, but it's a pretty nice topping to your ice cream.
On topic, I got platinum months ago. No idea how either, really: I don't think I bought all that many games...
