Now that Switch is selling, it needs to evolve...

This is a very basic feature that's been standard for the rest of the industry for years, now. Many Switch users would enjoy it. Those who do not could simply disable it. Adding the option would only be a benefit, and one long overdue.

I understand that people like it. I just don't. It kind of turned me off from playing certain games because of achievements, especially ones that ask too much of me. I also get that I can just ignore them if I don't like them. Though why is it that other people can't be like that on the opposite side? Is anything lost by not having achievements in a game? The only time I see it worthwhile is if I'm rewarded with something, like extra goods unlocked.

An optional feature you choose to turn off > a missing feature you had no choice in enabling or not. People like challenges and bragging rights. You don't need achievements to have challenges, but they create a more tangible and trackable record of your gaming accomplishments as well as additional goals to strive for in your playtime.
