I don't think even Nintendo knows why they do or don't do anything :p

It's definitely a feature they should work on. My personal interest in them is pretty limited, but I've always thought it was a great feature. I've seen hundreds of people on PSN, XBL and Steam that enjoy collecting achievements, while only a handful that actively dislike them. Those that don't care either way just ignore them. Seems like a win-win in my books.

Exactly. Nothing wrong with having more options.

Hooray, another outlet for achievement-haters to remind all us idiots about how achievements are objectively pointless and stupid.

You know what else is pointless? VIDEO GAMES. Adding an achievement system is just another layer of entertainment value to something that's already a form of entertainment. I like them, and would love to have them in my Nintendo games.

After reading so many comments on this site it's pretty obvious that people would rather all consoles were the same.

I hate this so much. I hate games with online achievements because someday the online will go away, making some games almost impossible to complete.

I believe they've commented on why they won't bring any system like this to their consoles because they don't want people to keep playing games just to earn rewards or trophies for bragging rights. They want them to keep playing their game because they like playing the game.

Achievements/trophies are a worthless gimmick in my opinion, whenever I play my Xbox 360 I turn them off.

Probably because they don't want to it.

Really, did nintendo said that?, if this is true, no wonder they are always behind everyone.

You can do that in Miiverse
