Any thoughts?

Can't wait for Nintendo fans to change their minds about achievements.
>>
>>389814842
Oh, actually go fuck yourself
MANY Nintendo games have and have had in-game Achievements for quite a while
I don't know what the fuck you're on, but I have never seen anyone complain about such a feeble matter

You're probably thinking of the digital dick-measuring achievements incur by being tied to the OS and user ID of other consoles. Achievements by themselves are pretty common for Nintendo games, people just don't do them.

i don't see what could possibly be wrong with them? it's just extra optional stuff to do. literally an objective improvement. some games have shit achievements though, but that's not a problem with it as a whole

The whole system is so redundant. Glad you can at least turn off the notification.

However, having the option is good I guess. Because there are obviously people that care for that shit. For whatever reason.

I am a Nintendo fan and I hate OS level achievements but I'm fine with it if there is an option to disable them. Achievements are a complete waste of time unless there is actually some in game reward, like Kirby Air Ride had.

>>
>>389814317
Not a fan, but it's a good development.

I mean, pretty much every developer creates achievements today. So if they want to port their game to Switch they have to skip all the achiever or program them into the game.

Having a streamlined system like sonny and ms is good.
>>
They already almost had an achivement system in the WiiU called Stickers

trophies and achievements add nothing to the value of a game and detract time and money away from something that could be useful and added to the game like skins or unlocks.

How would it not be optional, you're never forced to complete an achievement or trophy on competing platforms.
>>
>>389816249
I know but I want to be able to turn off the entire thing. So that, even if I clear one, it doesn't register on my system or for my friends to see.

I hate achievements for being retarded autismo fluff but the extent of my hate only goes as far as "I don't care if a system has it or not". If Nintendo makes achievements at least it'll appease the autists.
>>
Why do Nintendies even hate achievements so much anyways? Just the principal of not having them breeding hatred?
>>
>>389816837
Has nothing to do with Nintendo fans hating achievements, it's just that the autists who like it so much see the Switch not having achievements as a deal breaker so they haven't bought one yet, while people who don't care or dislike them own one.

Because the they'll start with the dick-measuring contest that IS achivemnts and ask shit like " why haven't you gotten all achivemnts in X game? I though that was your favorite, lol even I have more than you" etc.

If they add this as shit I better be able to turn it off completely.

i would like them to use achievements in a unique way; not the same retarded shit where you get some text congratulating you for starting the game. make it like steam collectible crap but without the trading card marketplace cancer. build a new community feature and tie that shit in. none of that gay nintendo game only sticker shit.

>"When they create their games, [Nintendo's designers] don't tell you how to play their game in order to achieve some kind of mythical reward," Trinen said, explaining his view of why Nintendo's top creators have stayed off the Achievement bandwagon. Trinen is currently head of product marketing for Nintendo of America, but has also long communicated with Nintendo's top development talent in Japan and would be privy to their design philosophies. "Basically, the way the games are designed is they're designed for you to explore the game yourself and have this sense of discovery," he said. "To that end, I think that when you look specifically at games from EAD [the group long led by Mario and Donkey Kong creator Shigeru Miyamoto] and a lot of other games that Nintendo has developed a well, there are things you can do in the game that will result in some sort of reward or unexpected surprise. In my mind, that really encourages the sense of exploration rather than the sense of 'If I do that, I'm going to get some sort of artificial point or score that's going to make me feel better that I got this.' And that, to me, is I think more compelling."

Was he right?
>>
>>389815547
>*is complacent about giving up one of the only cool things about owning a nintendo system*
But nintendo hasn't made paid online a thing yet.
>>
>>389819985
Yes. Achivemnts only make games more casual, but that doesn't mean it's a good thing to leave out.

Nintendo can skip it in their own games, but it should be an option fo 3rd party developers to easily include. It's such a standardized thing today that it's stupid not to have anything like it.
>>
>>389819985
Nintendo is fucking stupid.

Why do they always use themselves as the reference point? Surely they must know that they are the ones who do things differently, not everyone else?

Thinking that achievement are useless because your very specific internal dev team don't use them is idiotic.

I don't think Nintendo will introduce an achievement system this late, most likely it will be something related to mynintendo where u
you can earn coins if you do particular action in their mobile game, or at lost i hope because that would be coom

>>389820330
don't be fucking retarded, it's gonna be a thing

They've called similar features in their games "Accomplishmemts" in the past, so I guess they'd go with that.

Miyamoto isn't the person that decides what Nintendo does.
>>
>>389828681
>I don't think Nintendo will introduce an achievement system this late
I disagree, mainly because they've yet to introduce their paid online structure.

It makes sense to include features people are used to getting on other systems that also feature a payed model.
>>
>>389814317
Litterally who cares about achievements? They mean nothing.
I do not have a strong opinion on whether achievements are a good thing or a bad thing at all. You retards are arguing about something that means litterally nothing to a lot of people.

The only probable use is to check how long a user has had a game installed or if they have beaten the campaign, which is a rare occurrence, because usually you wouldn't care.
>>
>>389829125
yeah but they already have a system in place for their mobile game, so you don't have to waste time adding new shit and you can differentiate from their competitor

They're good for completionists aka the only people actually qualified to discuss games in depth because they actually go through the entire game to 100% all there is in it.

Its another system to track end user data.

I'd avoid any of the trophy and achievement systems if I were you anons. They're used to track and analyze your online behaviour. You're basically giving away private information about yourselves for free.
>>
>>389814842
I love Nintendo and I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I've been giving them shit for years about not having an achievement/trophy system. There have been multi-platform games that I've chosen to get on PS3/PS4 solely due to trophies.

>>389830308
100% completion existed before trophies and achievements, like leveling all your characters to level 99 and leveling up all up your weapons, beating the game on hard etc they're just a continution of those previous theories and they're good because they actually encourage a player to actually play and experience the entire game and challenge themselves rather than just breeze throughout.

It signals something about you as a player. Imagine a smaller group of players who completed a game at the highest difficulty contra an overwhelmingly large amount who barely completed the game on the standard difficulty.

This kind of data gives marketing and market analysis departments a leverage to meddle with game development.

>>389831475
If they're competent it just means make the easy mode easier and keep the other difficulties hard where they are. They're not gonna remove Lunatic Classic as an option from a Fire Emblem game just because the achievements show most people played Normal Casual. Any game that does otherwise isn't worth playing.

I am not saying that there aren't Nintendo fans who dislike achievements because there are certainly plenty of them.
But most people who dislike or hate achievements appear to be steam-negative mustards.
And for what it's worth plenty of Sony fans dislike achievements too.

I have no idea why you'd think Nintendo fans in particular have a negative stance towards achievements.

First of all, achievements have never been a big issue in any game. They are always a side thought that people put in for additional content and more things to do after beating the game. I'm completely fine with achievements.
Second of all, how would you even know it's Nintendofags that shit on achievements? There is no way for anyone to know what one's opinion is on Nintendo in a single post on /v/ unless they say something like "Achievements are shit, also I like Nintendo." And if someone actually made a post like the one I quoted, there's a much bigger chance that they are baiting you into thinking this bullshit.
I'm a giant nintendofag, and I can still hate things nintendo does. I still won't accept that payed online is a good thing, or will ever be a good thing. Stop with this idea that nintendofags hate everything until nintendo does it

I think you're giving marketing departments too much credit.

Aren't there are like a ton of achievements on smash bros since the first game?

the point of cheevos is not obtaining them, but having your friends see them for e-peen bragging
Smash has sort of cheevos but they're not shared online so only you see them
