Wii U Achievement System Not Standard
According to 5TH Cell's Jeremiah Slaczka, there won't be a system-wide achievement system for the Wii U. Each game developer will decide whether or not they want to include an achievement-based system for their software. Jeremiah Slaczka is the co-founder of 5TH Cell, an independently owned video game developer responsible for the creation of the Scribblenauts and Drawn To Life series, and many other popular titles for various platforms.
Here's what Jeremiah had to say.
There are no Wii U accomplishments that are system wide. They are up to the developers to include or not include. Scribblenauts Unlimited loosely has them in the form of "Global Starite Shards" which is like a giant checklist of global things to spawn and do in the game that aren't area specific.
Things could change in the future. The Miiverse is in its infancy. Just think how much the PS3/360 dashboard and store changed to meet people's needs. I'm sure Nintendo will do plenty of updates and new integration of systems as time goes on.

Boiling it down to the very core, just think Super Smash Bros. Brawl or Wii Sports Resort.

Though I do like it for motivating me to keep playing the game so I hope certain games have it.

Irrelevant in what sense?
I'm just asking because I do not publish irrelevant information. So, is this just irrelevant to you, personally, or wholly? If the latter, please provide details as to why you feel as such.

In this way is the info irrelevant, it could be for the haters instead, never for a Nintendo lover.
The news must be written, no doubt about that and you're just doing your job perfectly
I hope I've made it clear now. I'm trying at least, my English might not be perfect...

And, residing in Europe, your English is far superior to many that live in the native-speaking United States. That, I can assure and appreciate you for.

Exactly, if anything this is a missed opportunity. I mean if they played their cards right they could have integrated Miiverse. Honestly, I would have loved an "achievement room". Let me explain. Think of your home in Animal Crossing. That is a 4 sided space that you can decorate, right? Well imagine something similar on a much lower scale as a place to display your achievements. When you visit you see your Mii and their Mii and can browse their accomplishments. Then you can screen capture and share that on Miiverse etc. The possibilities are endless. Something fun and different would have been ideal for Nintendo if they were going to allow us to house our accomplishments.
