Unfortunately at this point, that funny eshop game won't make them much moneyl, while the smartphone game most likely will. 

I don't really like the idea of Nintendo making games for phones, but if it helps the console and handheld counterpart, I'm not against it all. And of course as long as they keep stupid, small mini-games, don't go and make a full Mario, Zelda or Metroid game for smartphones, I would be pissed if that happens.

Then call it quits, and embrace the mobile world if you think your own device or electronic shop isn't up to it.

Don't dabble in the mobile market and get full on in it. No ad game, let's say put a full game, like Advance Wars or Pokemon.

That's not what I mean at all. We "hardcore" gamers will have Super Mario 3D World in all it's glory, while "casual" gamers will have Mario Candy Crush 3D (just go with it). We will have Pikmin 3 while them will have some sort of Pikmin minigame like in NintendoLand. We will have a massive open world Zelda (let me dream for a bit), while them will have a cucco chase minigame. You get the idea.

And as long as marketing is done correctly, those users who play Mario Candy Crush 3D are also potential buyers for Mario 3D World, both can definitely coexist and they can benefit each other out.
