I like obtaining Achievements/Trophies sure but not having them would never affect my purchase of a console/game. Wii U not having any achievement system didn't bother me in the slightest.

Really it always bothered me Wii U didn't have Achievements, hence the article.

Personally I enjoy achievements. Sure they don't mean anything but I've found over the years that I've gotten many extra hours out of some games due to trophies/achievements.

Did I expect Nintendo to add them? Of course not, they rarely add anything I want.

Exactly, they just add replay and fun for setting a certain goal. that's what games are really, the goal is to reach the end etc... Achievements just add to the goals of the game, it's like added quests and who doesn't like that? .



Will it be there? Maybe, maybe not.

Do I give a shit? Not, one piece of it.
Everytime I see something like that on my PS4, I'm like, "Oh, ok, whatever." And go right back to playing WWE 2K17 or Final Fantasy XV

I just wait and see when it is official.

Your title seems like a claim, but you have no proof for that. Mind posting a source for that?

Mind reading the article were I wrote a disclaimer?

I don't see your disclaimer. Mind posting your sources? You know, a link to your source?

Because "random sites" is worth nothing for that claim you did.



Intel Core i7 8700K | 32 GB DDR 4 PC 3200 | ROG STRIX Z370-F Gaming | RTX 3090 FE| Crappy Monitor| HTC Vive Pro :3

It's not essential but it's a crazy decision to omit them. Surely they'll see sense and add them in

here is another article on the matter and the vote on this site is 90% in favor for Achievements even though the article seems to make a case against it. http://culturedvultures.com/nintendo-switch-achievements-trophies/



I think they will add achievements when people will stop caring about them.


I really don't like achievements at all, but even I know that this is a bad decision from Nintendo... Just do it already, you even have paid online, give the people what they want for once... They are just annoying, narrowminded jerks.

I said it could go anyway, meaning that's my disclaimer, Generally them not focusing on it or using it to show they are adding to a system is a pretty good sign they are not going to have Achievements. http://culturedvultures.com/nintendo-switch-achievements-trophies/



I always think achievement/trophy is good for an online arcade/multiplayer games with leaderboard stuff like that, but a single-player/Co-op games aren't REALLY important.

Edit: Though Nintendo didn't confirm yet, you need to wait.



Nothing's confirmed either way, and I really don't care either way. Achievements are the most useless gaming-related invention of the last two decades, and when I read through a list of them reading the kind of mundane tasks you have to do for most of them, it's like they're designed to make a game as tedious and frustrating as possible. I really don't see how anyone would have fun with that.
