I see it as Sony trying to be innovative and trying to find new ways to expand the video game industry. It may or may not work but all business takes risk.

If anything I don't think Nintendo and MS aren't doing enough (well MS has PC so mainly Nintendo?) Isn't there alot of people that wanted/still wants Nintendo games to go on iOS and Android?


Exactly, nintendo could easily port some of their old classics to ios and android. 

Remind people what fun nintendo games can provide. 

Maybe they play pokemon gold, get feelings of nostalgia, then during the game an ad pops up saying "Pokemon X Now available on 3DS"

It's a brill idea, wont hurt there business even if it doesnt cause people to buy the hardware, and it's extra cash from a market that otherwise wouldnt be giving them a penny.

And its better nintendo provide official ports or emulators rather than pirates providing them and making money off nintendos ip

My thoughts exactly.  I don't think itll hurt the Nintendo name if they released their own official emulators for iOS and Android and how harmful could it be to release games that are like +10yrs old.  I'm sure there are many people that would rather pay for an official nintendo emulator than to download a free one.  It'll give phone users a taste of Nintendo and if they want the full deal then they'll purchase a Nintendo console.  That's how I see it with PSNow and how people can game on phones too where they'll get the Sony experience but if/when they're ready to try out the full Sony experience then they can purchase the PS4.  Worst case Sony/Nintendo made a few extra bucks elsewhere that's not from their console.
