No. This is not Call of Duty.

You don't need to track statistics, and that would only add to the decline of the gold standard of game design.

Why do you think that Nintendo usually does not add stat-tracking in their games? Super Smash Bros. Melee may be a huge landmark in the stat-tracking video game world, but keep in mind that much of that stat tracking is based around nonsense terms and made up nintendo mumbo-jumbo. Also, everyone knows that SSB is a non-competitive game, specifically designed for fun in gameplay, and never intended for it to matter who won the game. If you're going to make stat-tracking, you must make sure it revolves around fun and not around numbers.

Think about it first!
