Achievements och trophies är något vi jagat i Xbox 360- och Playstation 3-spel ett bra tag nu. Nintendo har dock inte verkat sugna på den typen av metaspel, och nu har företagets Bill Trinen an uttalat sig om saken:
"When they create their games, Nintendo doesn't tell you how to play their game in order to achieve some kind of mythical reward. Basically, the way the games are designed is they're designed for you to explore the game yourself and have this sense of discovery," berättar Trinen för Kotaku.
"To that end, I think that when you look specifically at games from EAD [the group long led by Mario and Donkey Kong creator Shigeru Miyamoto] and a lot of other games that Nintendo has developed a well, there are things you can do in the game that will result in some sort of reward or unexpected surprise.
In my mind, that really encourages the sense of exploration rather than the sense of 'If I do that, I'm going to get some sort of artificial point or score that?s going to make me feel better that I got this.' And that, to me, is I think more compelling."
