Correct.

The "Nintendo Red" is just for the screens in the article.

lol I had no idea, how long have you been able to change appearance like that??

Since the Xbox Series came out.

Since the Xbox Series came out.

I'm fairly certain even Xbox One had that, you could change the color profile for system UI level stuff and it reflects on all the menu items and pop-ups like the achievement or online notifications.

And yet shit Nintendo still doesn't have any. So close to selling that device.

I like this. Didn't realise I had 1000 gd indiana jones. Doing the dlc and will get all those too. What a game. I remember the golden era of achievements.

Achievements need an overhaul. They need value added to them. Otherwise they're pointless. Why not offer a small incentive to getting achievements.

Are you mad? The sound and sight of them popping is incentive alone

They should go back to the achievement tiered system on the 360, with rewards. They would probably need to change the gamerscore a needed compared to what they had it with the 360. Could add a discount reward, multiplier bonus for Xbox rewards, Xbox gift card, perks, etc. depending what tier you are in.

• Contender (3,000–9,999G): Lower-tier perks.
• Champion (10,000–24,999G): Mid-tier perks.
• Legend (25,000+G): Top-tier perks

What? You could always customize the color to match with your profile anytime notifications pop up

I love PlayStation trophies more than any other system.

But I hate not being able to remove trophies from games I don't like. I've tried them, and unfortunately, I've gotten an "easy" trophy.

Marvel Rivals, for example.

Color red is for Nintendo

RED??

Hell no. Scrap the whole system

My system color is blue.......have I betrayed the Green Rats?????



P.S
Hasnt system color customization been a feature since forever even with achievements popping up in said color?
And pretty sure the "rare" achievement diamond with the unique sound has also been a thing since rare achievements became a thing too.

The secret best Steam Achievements at least you can use them to get pictures keyboards or what ever.

This was in Xbox 360 literally at launch. Early games had profile pics and stuff tied to cheevos. But it never caught on.

Steam achievements is a joke because you can use a program to unlock them.

Good to see the Xbox UI getting some love.

Some1 with a Twitter account tweet this to Asha.

Xbox should have "precious Gemstone" based achievement system in addition to gamerscore. While Sony uses "precious metals" for trophies, like Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Xbox should use Sapphire, Emerald, Ruby, Diamond.

 

[Fahdis]

Is there a point to bothering with Xbox achievements anymore? When they close shop and shut down you'll be hit with the realization that once it's all gone, you achieved nothing.

Sounds like life in general.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Now you can hide Magic Pussy 3 from your achievement list? Shameful!

 

[xrnzaaas]

Xbox achievements should have two changes:
- Simple short popups like the X360 achievements, not an entire animation that stays on screen for several seconds. This is especially annoying when you unlock several in a row.
- An option for notifications to pop without making a sound or with a simple click. Rare achievements are the worst since you get a loud sound which can be very distracting if you're playing a quieter game or you're focused on what's happening on the screen.

Looks like this update is now starting to roll out to all users, not just insiders.

 

[Zacfoldor]

Id like Asha to pop up with motivating 'Hell, yeah!' When I pop a cheevo
