 Nintendo is already experimenting with f2p games anyway. There are two so far I'm aware of; those being Rusty's Real Deal Baseball and Steel Diver. They try to have a presence in the mobile markert as an additional revene source.

 


I don't think so

I've read a study a few weeks ago (sorry I can't find it at the moment) that showed that Mobile apps are more effective  as a tool for building a powerful brand rather than a source of income.

If you read Nintendo's here

Nintendo is looking at mobile to build their brand rather than getting an extra source of income.

Essentially, smartphones and tablets will simply be another place where they can market their games and hardware
