Well with the rumors of the NX being a hybrid/handheld, I may as well bring back up my idea for Badges. It's never happening, but hey, at least I have my weird fantasies.
Basically Badges would merge the various Badge concepts Nintendo has floating around already, serving as both an equivalent to Trophies/Achievements as they are in Animal Crossing and Pokemon and as a menu decoration as on the 3DS with Badge Arcade.
You could do something notable in one of your NX games, and it'll give you a Badge that you can put on your NX menu or look at in your Badge collection book.
Then there would also be "Premium" Badges and/or "Arcade Exclusive" Badges that would have to be paid money for in the Eshop or earned in the Badge Arcade instead.
And then there would also be the option to trade Badges either with local multiplayer or with other people on your Friend List.
I would also imagine in this scenario that Badges would be more smoothly integrated into the system than with Badge Arcade. The Badge collection book would be selectable directly or nearly directly from the system menu and Badge function would be there from the start.
