It wont be able to compete

todays smartphone market is either android or iOS,and ninty could only utilize android or build their own operating system

Incidently, Nintendo has created an OS before.  Called ES.  Guess who bought the rights to ES from Nintendo in 2008?  Google.  They now co-own the copyright.

but how does that help nintendo?

Outside of obviously working closely with Google on OS projects, I can't say.  It was more an interesting factoid than any insinuation that a phone with Google is plausible.
