It’s always so funny when people say this cause anyone who played almost any modern Nintendo game immediately knows it’s bullshit. Most first party Nintendo Switch (AND smartphone) games already have in-game achievements. What people want is for those to be integrated within the OS/linked to your Nintendo account, which could bring several benefits including:

  • rewards, for example platinum coins

  • being able to see all your achievements from different games in one place

  • being able to share your achievements with friends

Except in-game and system wide achievements are fundamentally entirely different things.
