I'm honestly unsure about having some sort of achievement system on Switch. I was completely addicted to my Xbox Gamerscore. I got it to just under 150,000, but I stopped playing Xbox about 3 years ago. In some ways I'm happy to get Achievements again with the integration of Xbox Live on Switch, but I don't know that I want a system wide achievement-like system on Switch. I've actually felt some sense of relief not having to mess with Achievements. I've enjoyed playing games just for the sake of playing games on Switch, and not feeling some weird compulsion to get some arbitrary number that really has nothing to do with anything attached to my profile. If Nintendo does do something like Achievements, I hope it is somewhat differentiated from Achievements and trophies, and doesn't make me feel compelled to play just for the token.
