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

[Conegamer]

I don't get people's reaction to this news. Just because it's not mandatory, doesn't mean it's NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN IN ANY GAMES EVA!!!!

We have evidence of Nintendo introducing a system of Accomplishments, which are the counterpart to MS' Achievements and Sony's Trophies. Most games, especially multiplat titles, will use them. 3rd party titles will also likely use them, and most 1st party titles will as well. It's probably just titles which don't benefit from them which wouldn't use them, and that's the right move.

Also, make them worth something as well. I don't know; like if you get all achievements (like the Platinum Trophy), then you get a free DLC or bonus levels or something actually in-game. That way, it makes people collect them who are completionists, and so long as there's other ways of unlocking these levels, it keeps everyone happy. Because I enjoy collecting them, but I don't feel compelled to do so.

The fewer basic 'story' trophies the better for me, anyway. And please, let there be an option to turn them off? At least the notifications? I can't imagine anything more annoying than playing a horror title, or going through an emotional scene, when the "Achievements" logo pops up. It's so damn annoying!

After everything I've said, let's just see. This seems like an over-reaction from both sides of the argument.
