any chance of achievement/trophy system on the wii u?

i love the idea of my gaming accomplishments being tracked for all to see and just so i can keep track myself.

i find myself not caring about getting 100% in some games i like or even beating some of them. whats the point if not even i'll remember, atleast with a trophy system i have a virtual checklist.

one would think that nintendo would know that achievement tracking is a standard now (even if YOU dont like it, lots of people do and theres no reason NOT to have it)

so why no trophy tracking, and what are your thoughts on the matter?

I love that type of system, I believe developers have been given the option by Nintendo to include this sort of thing inside the games themselves. NintendoLand  has stamps, Ubisoft have the Uplay system. 

you know what would be a cool achievement system for nintendo?

coins...

youll be like "hey bro how many coins you got?"  i have 1000 coins!

got 500 coins playing New super mario bros U!

hopefully in the future. Nintendo is too stubborn, so a community push might force them to implement them on the wii u

coins would be cool if I could spend them to play arcade-style mini-games with online leaderboards.

Few things: 1st: Devs can put in Achievments if they so wish. 2nd: Nintendo doesnt and will never care about system wide achievements. 3rd: If you need a pat of the back for every little thing you do in a game, well thats just sad. 4th: Theres the same amount of people who hate Achievments that like them. As for me only with the Halo games do I get achievements. Other then those Im 100% against them.

I'd rather have a built in games achievement system rather than a console achievement system. Leaderboards is enough for me

No, and there's a chance there never will be.

Nintendo fans don't much like competition, they're rather a "you played a game here's a star!" type of audience.

The thing is that the achievement/trophy system is the evolution of a high score. High scores aren't bad to most people except those who can't get them.

The idea that games themselves have them is useless. This is 2013, there's no excuse why everything I do in gaming can't be tied to me. Every other platform allows me this except for Nintendo.

But that goes back to the type of people that play the hardware and games, that's why Nintendo does a time played instead. It's not how you played it's that you played at all.

I don't understand the achievement hate. Not everyone sees them as "pats on the back." I like them for my own personal tracking. I can look back and see when I finished certain games years ago now. And when they're tied into services like Raptr, they're great conversation starters.

I personally would like achievements on the Wii U. I mean I can certainly live without them, but they would be fun. I am NOT a fan of services like UPlay which are just portals on top of portals. That crap is annoying, specifically on the PC. So, personally, I'd rather that they were implemented platform-wide, or not at all.

lol..wiiU gamers fear competition...

i have a 360 and i can easily get a gamer score highter than 50% of their users...its a joke. it just means you play games everyday. no competition involved.

its just so you can look at it...drink kool aid and pat yourself on the back.

When I was playing Lego City Undercover, I will admit that it felt weird trying to complete the game 100 percent, like I did for other Lego games on the 360. Now, here's the thing. When I finally understood that I was trying to 100 percent finish Lego City Undercover with no accomplishment in sight, I suddenly stopped putting up with the tediousness and moved on with other games. In a way, I'm thankful Wii U games don't have them. You should keep playing a game because it's so fun that you can't put it down, not to get some unlockable trinket.JustPlainLucas

Well you might enjoy a game enough to where you can kind of put up with something just to find out what that unlockable is. I could have looked up what you get at 100% for LCU, but I was still enjoying it the city enough to keep striving for that, even if I didn't know what it was. Sadly, it wasn't a rideable Yoshi that could eat people and spit them out as fireballs as I had hoped. :(

Something like Dark Moon though, which I enjoyed, but I didn't want to go and put in the effort to get 3-stars on every mission unless the reward was good enough. It wasn't, so I was content with having simply captured all Boos.

[QUOTE="Master_Of_Fools"] Cause we need Nintendo being a 3rd clone. Having each system all having the exact same stuff would give people no reason to buy more then 1 of the systems.

like you said, dark moon's completion bonus aint great, but if it had achieves, you bet ur ass id get it, its a great game, but not great enough for me to do all that for no (or lil) reason.

i just like getting achieves cause i love gaming, and i love my accomplishments being carved in stone instead of just my head.

dont get me wrong ive been gaming long be4 achieves, i dont "need" em to enjoy a game. but now it should be a standard.

achieves kinda changed the way i play :P

I NEVER troll on anything period. While Achievments dont effect me buying a system. But I have come across HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE on forums and even people on Miiverse who said If the Wii U doesnt get Achievments then I return my Wii U. And the people on the forums said No achievements no Wii U for me.Master_Of_Fools

Isn't that exactly why the Wii U needs achievements? They're obviously popular.
