of all the things nintendo fans are asking for, i think a global achievements system is pretty far down the list. first, games like smash bros., pikmin 3, 3d world, tropical freeze and wonderful 101 have already implemented their unique achievements system and cannot be patched to comply with a new universal system if one were introduced tomorrow (which it won't be, but whatever). second, it depends on how you think of achievements as interacting with a game. do achievements serve primarily as social function, marking you out as having completed everything in a game, or do they simply extend the time you spend with a game? achievements that add to the experience and substantially increase the value of the game in terms of hours logged trying to unlock everything are great--and nintendo is already doing that. wonderful 101 and pikmin 3 could easily be played for 50+ hours trying to get everything, for example. my guess is they don't really care for the social function of achievements, but do care, and have demonstrated that, about the value added to a game by achievements sytems. which is why they're already doing it in their own way.... |
Exactly you said it, NINTENDO FANS, You need to attrack others not just the hardcore nintendo fans. Last gen they got the casual market, all those same people are buying ps4 and Xbox one, Why do you think that is? because it's all the small things that add up.
sony added trophy's after they launched and where able to implement it globally, so that proves you are wrong they could easily achieve it with some updates.
