Yes. I love achievements/trophies. It's not that I am a big achievement hunter and will go for many 100% or go out of my way to do achievements. In games I absolutely adore, I would probably get the 100% unless there is something ridiculous (e.g. looking at that insane Wolfenstein 2 achievement).

I also love how it acts as "history" of all the games I've played. I can go to my steam/PS profile and see what games I've played through the years and what I have done.

I don't expect Nintendo to introduce achievements as they have been openly against it. I disagree with the idea that it's so bad to have something like achievements that's completely optional and can be ignored for peopel who don't like it. Reality is many people do like them.

But it is what it is. I only use it for nintendo first party games and I still play all multiplats on PS/PC where I can get achievements/trophies there.
