Wii U won’t make Achievements Mandatory for all games.

This is the perfect way to do it. Some games are built around the concept of achievements better than others, and nothing annoys me more than:

1) *Starts new file* = Achievement unlocked!
2) *Gets through tutorial* = Achievement unlocked!
3) *Gets to second level* = Achievement unlocked!

Those aren't achievements, they're ways for insecure gamers to feel better about themselves with bloated gamerscores. The other 99.99% of gamers don't give a crap about these stupidly placed achievements.

I got so used to these kinds of achievements/trophies that I feel really bad playing Max Payne 3. I'm on Chapter VIII and I've only got 4% of the trophies since the game gives very few "story trophies".
