Wow.

That reasoning just doesn't add up. Trophies and achievements don't tell people how to play a game they "reward" players for doing something in a game.ycole11

Why not include them. It's simple and adds fun. There's literally no negative. To people saying they are useless and Nintendo games don't need them: Why is there Star Coins in NSMBW? Why is there "stamps" in Wii Sports? Why are there special challenge objectives in Punchout Wii? Why are these goals here? Because they are fun of course. Should be standard.locopatho

If there is a substantial in-game reward for collecting say all of the coins in the game then you don't really need achievements, but if there isn't anything fantastic than an achievement makes your effort feel a little more worthwhile.

I thought an achievement system was confirmed for the 3DS?

So they won't put achievements for finding every star because they are virtual points worth nothing but they will "hide" stars in unexpected places in order to have a virtual good personal feeling after getting them because I explore the small world they throw at me?

That doesn't make any sense.

There's always a next console :P

And btw, Club Nintendo > Worthless Achievements

Don't really care for them, outside of achievements or trophies you get auto I don't go after them.

I just thought of something, usually when they say they arent doing something or they believe people dont want it, they are actually working on it. Dumb thought I know, but for all we know, the 3DS doesnt have achievements because the system that nintendo is working on just isnt ready and will become aviable in a firmware update. Also, with it likely that they are going to hint or actually announce the Wii2 at E3 for all we know, it might be the system that launches nintendo's own verson of achivements.

But anyway, like I said, I dont care about achievements, I dont see much use in them, especially if you dont have internet or if you cant afford to pay extra fees (live).

I definitely think that Nintendo should add achievements to their next gen. console. It makes playing games much more addicting and long lasting, to me at least.

I completely agree with Nintendo. Achievements and Trophies are pointless.

Seriously dude, you criticize Nintendo so hard, but you don't even have an idea of what you're talking about, do you?

It's easy to determine if someone has played the game though.Like a gamercard.

Not something a gaming company would think of when creating a system though.

Honestly thats a bad excuse... Achievements were probably the best thing to come this gen.

They add tons to a game... nobody is forced to get all the achievements as well but it adds replay value to it

Also not to mention it would help sales for nintendo with those that are obsessed with them

I get that, like those score systems in arcade games. You felt satisfying wen you achived a higher score than another person.

But i think they should swap that with unlockable bonuses than useless achivements, bonuses that adds to the game a ton more replay value and well worth spending your money. Kill the damn bull DLC (God only knows why people buy them), and add unlockable bonuses that can be achived by completing a various tasks from the game. A lot of games did that, but not a significant mainstream amount.

That would be so damn cool..

Really if you look and see how many people jump into the first pit in a game 5 times in a row to get an award that is retarded.wooooode

How can there be awards for failing 5 times?

That makes no damn sense...

There are alot of them that you have to fail to get.wooooode

That's messed up. Achivements are for a succes, not for a fail. It's like getting a high score in games and you've ben doing nothing except dying. What king of logic is that, what were they thinking, damn.

Ever play GHIII? It has a couple achievements like that.

Blowin' It:Fail any song 10 times

Almost Got It:Fail a song passed 90% completion

Oh and those get 0 achievement points (360 version obviously)

There is nothing stopping them from adding achievements after the game has been made.
