How Did People Even Think of the Idea That Nintendo Should Go Mobile?

I'll answer your question with another question... what's the difference between games like Nintendo Land or NSMB U and your average smartphone game?

The smartphone games cost $59 less.

I haven't played any mobile game that's like Nintendo Land or NSMBU.

OT: Many people don't see the value in console games (even more so of Handheld games), especially that of Nintendo. Even if they do produce large games (like Zelda or 3D Marios and yes, 2D Platformers.) This mainly applies to Nintendo only. There will come a time when mobile games do start to really rival console games, but that time is not now.

The time will be at the point smartphone games cost 30€/$ or more. Only starting at this point these games can have budgets that allow for games comparable to console-games (sans the shovelware).
