Ninty is at a very low risk of bankrupcy for some good reasons:
1) huge cash and some of the best selling and most profitable franchises allow it to endure some periods of crisis if they don't last too long
2) carefully avoiding bloating, even at cost of struggling producing enough when it has huge sales boosts allows its business to remain sustainable even when HW sales are quite meh
3) should it be forced to port its franchises to other platforms, it could do it without benefiting its direct competitors in the home and portable console business, it could port them exclusively to iOS and Stream (but just in its StreamOS Linux flavour) and it could consider Android too only if the damage to Windows Phone would outweight the benefit for Sony Android phones. It could also carefully choose which games to port to mobile devices to avoid helping them competing with its portable consoles as long as possible.
It could also enter directly the phone and tablet market with its own devices, or even better, license its brand only to the best phone and tablet producers and supervising their design.
