VC games only qualify for post play coins, so it sounds like you got all the surveys you were meant to.
3DS Classics and 3DSWare games have registration surveys as well that can only be filled out for a week after you buy them.
Hmm, okay. I just called two different people at Nintendo's support number and confused the hell out of them. I simply asked if I get points for just buying 3DS eShop games, or if I only get points from surveys. She did not understand my question even after asking two supervisors. Sad. Best hold music ever, though, a bunch of Ocarina of Time songs.
I also asked the question about using a family account to register two 3DS's and getting coins for each. I was told I could register them no problem but she was unsure if I would get coins for each. I'm probably going to have to send an e-mail to get a better answer, we'll see. I find that GAF is a much better resource for questions like that, but no one in this thread has that 100% confirmed.
Okay, I'm confused all over again....but I think I figured it out now.

Why am I not getting a survey for my registered eShop downloads, DSiWare, Wii Shop Channel games, and Wii Channel downloads?
There are two types of surveys for earning Coins:
"Product Registration" surveys, which provide us with information on how you purchased the product; and "Post Play" surveys, which allow you to share your opinion of the game, channel, or application after you have used it. Because we already know where you acquired the game, channel, or application, the only survey for registered eShop downloads, DSiWare, Wii Shop Channel games, and Wii Channels are "Post Play." So that you have enough time to use the game, channel, or application before responding to the survey, please allow 7 days for the "Post Play" survey to appear in your "To-Do" list. If an eShop download, DSiWare download, Wii Shop Channel game, or Wii Channel was activated manually for you by Nintendo, it will still take about 7 days from the time we registered it for you before the survey will appear and you can earn Coins.
I think misinformation is being passed over the phone at Nintendo and in this thread. It takes seven days for it to APPEAR in your account. The information in the sidebar on the Club Nintendo page doesn't help, either. For instance:
3D Classics: Kirby's Adventure is eligible for 10-Coin Registration Survey within 7 days after download.
It makes it sound like you have seven days to take the survey to get the coins. The thing is, though, I just bought three games from the eShop, and they all say "Post Play Survey Expires 03/13/2012" on the "Home" page of my Club Nintendo account. It's NOT a Registration Survey, but maybe it varies from game to game. I bought "AiRace: Tunnel", "ARMY DEFENDER", "The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniv Ed", "Pokedex 3D" and "The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX" all this past week. I have about 122 days from the purchase date of each before the Post Play Survey expires. That's good to know. Also really cool to see that two free games qualify for 10 coins a piece. That's a first as far as I know. Netflix 3DS and Nintendo Video do show up in your Club Nintendo account but do not qualify for coins.
This could be the case, as according to this page:
https://club.nintendo.com/how-it-works-coins.do it clearly says that it's 10 coins per "Downloadable Game", and in the fine-print, it says "Virtual Console and DSiWare titles qualify for Post Play Surveys only". If someone who just Bought FreakyForms or 3D Classics: Kirby's Adventure could check their account, I kind of suspect that those games, as they are 3DS-specific downloadable games, would qualify for a 10 coin Registration Survey AND a 10 coin Post Play Survey.
I'd like to see some more clarification on this. I'm looking at you, DavidDayton!
and it came with one.
