I disagree. Mobile gaming is a vast wasteland with a shitty business model. Either you sell a game for peanuts or you go to a freemium model and not-so-transparently squeeze your customers for every penny they are willing to pay. There's no benefit to Nintendo. Alos, touch controls are very limiting for a lot of genres. Maybe when Apple and Google get serious about mobile gaming, it'll make sense to release AAA, not until then. However, I do like the idea of targeting mobile platforms as companion devices to Nintendo games or consoles. For example, It would cool if you could use an iPad or iPhone, in lieu of the Wii GamePad. SmartGlass-type stuff is cool and detracts nothing from the platform. Slick mobile app access to your account is awesome. Nintendo should have a presence, but releasing standalone games today is not necessary (didn't save Sonic).
