They should expand their business, but that doesn't mean develop a phone. For example they could use the power of the iphone to incentive their IPs, other companies are doing this (for example you have apps for MMOs) and this is not decreasing their results. I know they want to maximize the value of their platforms, but this will happen through retail games and key features, expanding their digital development to other markets wouldn't hurt IMHO. About the OP, no, the phone market is too advanced for Nintendo, they'd be killed in no time. Maybe a strong partneship with a phone manufacturer would help both though: one makes the phone, the other develops dedicated software.
