Wii U Achievements or trophies?

I am just curious if anything is confirmed or not for an achievement system for the wii u? I see them doing it sorta like how the 3ds is where it is in game achievements and not console achievements like xbox. Does anyone know anything is confirmed?

[QUOTE="Flappykid"] Wow, I'd rather not have known that people could be so pathetic and needy. Having an e-rep based on utterly meaningless flashes of green/black light on a video game. ............But thanks for that, I suppose.deathskitten

Have you ever actually played a game with achievements? You seem to think you only get them for completing a level. There are plenty of games that require lots of skill to get some of the achievements, for me the whole point of them is to get you to try new modes or ways of playing the game that you might not have otherwise. They can really help with replayability.

This is a forum for video gaming.Video gaming is an entirely hedonistic pursuit. Gaming has close to zero relevance to anything in the real world, bar flight simulators and a few other niche examples.

Deathskitten never made the claim that when they got the achievement it was 'so special'. So your phrasing of this question to a point he never raised is a straw man.

You think subjectively they're meaningless? Cool story bro. I am sure there are thousands who agree, thousands who disagree, and thousands whom haven't even formed an opinion about it yet.

Your statement before had an opening sentence which was so funny I could hardly believe it. Check it out:

"Wow, I'd rather not have known" - So you have a preference for ignorance?

"that people could be so pathetic and needy" - Are you making a judgemental sweeping generalisation of these people?

I don't make any judgements about you Flappy Kid, but regarding the content and quality of your written work here at Gamespot - it is nothing more than trollish flamebait.

[QUOTE="Flappykid"][QUOTE="deathskitten"] Just because achievements and trophies aren't your thing doesn't mean you have to be an arse to people who do like them...

[QUOTE="El_Zo1212o"][QUOTE="Flappykid"]I'm not saying you can't care for meaningless "achievements". Just like you can't stop me from pointing out that it's meaningless and requires no admirable skill. Well maybe you can, considering that this place has its own thought police wandering around.Flappykid

In that case, why do we play videogames? It's not productive either. It's a hobby. Collecting achievements is a hobby. And to some people, dare I say it, it's 'fun', or even rewarding. You and me both, we don't care for them. That's our opinion...but you shouldn't go further than that by downgrading others' opinions.

And by the way, achievements aren't totally meaningless. Eventually when you get enough points, you save 2% on purchases....yay.

I think we should get Nintendo coins for getting Accomplishments, (if Nintendo followed through with that). :)bbkkristian
