So you'll get platinum coins that you can spend to get discounts on digital software. Certainly more valuable than the usual achievement systems, but it has to be seen how many things My Nintendo is going to offer. Pickings were slim for the 3DS and Wii U.

Yep. Unlike the old club, I've yet to find value on using My Nintendo coins. However, I did expect this to not really kick off until Swtich is released, so I guess we'll see what happens over this year.

Though, I would say that this idea is far better than silly digital trophies.

Well, these are the same people that call Zelda an "Open Air" game instead of Open World...

You should do a twitch event for this. Make it happen.

cool idea, but I will use the switch as a portable and I'm not too charismatic when I'm playing video games :P

You don't have to even say anything, people just want to see if you can truly play it for 100 hours straight.

I know Nintendo wants to be different but they really need a system that keeps a record of what you've accomplished per game because it acts as an incentive to keep people within your ecosystem. It's hard for someone to give up an account when it has hundreds of hours worth of hard earned goals and achievements recorded on it.
