Ahahahahaha.
I laugh but it really isn't funny, it's pathetic. I can 100% guarantee that this will make no improvements to the quality of peoples' desire to learn, if anything these people would believe that they are completely immune to failure and so will do even less work. People that continually fail have no desire to learn and revise and so there's little point in these new, and useless methods.
How about we try concentrating on those that do well, giving us a nation with some geniuses and a few retards, rather than what looks like will happen where there'll be some average and some thick. People that don't work now are more likely to begin to work if all the attention is put on those that already work. Or something...

Take it up with Nintendo! protest that you should not be exposed to such political incorrectness in your own home!
I was playing Smash Bros Melee this morning, finishing all the event matches again, and when you lose one, the word 'Failure' appears on the screen.
I seriously can't imagine the words 'Deferred Success!' appearing.

It was a compliment you "dormant genius"! :-P
I'll tell you the problem with PC is that it makes people hyper-sensitive.
Sure, deferred success sounds "nice" now but wait until it becomes the norm.
Teacher: I'm afraid you're what we call a 'deferred sucess'
Kid: Deferred? You mean I'm not in the 'instant sucess' group? **breaks into tears**
