If you dont care about any kind of stats, why be against it? Your insanity is growing from the lack of a logical counter point to that statement. We dont need leaderboards, but I like stats, and I like the ability to do a "quick match" and have someone connected to someone with similar level of experience. I wont be anywhere near the first 500,000 ranked people ever, but I always like to know how im doing compared to others, competition is good, the only people who dont keep score are the people who never learned to accept a loss. (The same kind of freaks who think its a good idea to not keep score during a little league game) |
I agree with everything you've said.
I'm not sure why people are arguing against it. Some Nintendo fans are very strange. It's like they don't want extra features.
If you don't want stats don't play a ranked game or turn stats off, or just don't care! Exactly! A lot of people want stats. It's not going to change whether I play the game but it might change how long I play. If you want online games and people to play against, stats are a great way to keep people playing.
