Nintendo to not have Achievements once again?

I don't think so. On Playstation you see what percentage of players gotten a certain trophy. Mostly, they're in the single digits, except easy ones like getting x number of kills, they could be as high as 30%. Which is still low because those require no effort and you get them mostly by accident, and is not anywhere near a majority. Only those that you automatically get (and thus aren't 'achievements' at all) like when finishing the first level, score high. Tasks that require something extremely tedious could even be below 1%, and so are Platinum ones. I'd actually argue that nobody except total hard-core players, care about getting trophies.

It's low because many "gamers" don't even play their games for more than an hour and the majority of "gamers" don't finish their games.
So yeah achievement hunters are a minority, just like people completing the single player campaigns of their games.

Exactly.

It's funny, I got Rise of the Tomb Raider since a few weeks and there's a trophy about you having to "Survive an avalange", which is a story event ten minutes into the game, yet only 89% or whatever, don't know exactly, have that trophy! Then, a similar one "Survive the night in the cold", literally just a cutscene and a twenty meter walk further on, even has about 5% less. What are some people doing with their games?
