It not about arrogance. Sony's games are bought by the hardcore, those aren't crazy about mobile gaming, they often complain the PS4 isn't powerful enough for example! Nitendo's IP's however are much more appealing to the crowd playing on mobile devices, just watch their presence in Japan and notice how crazy Japan is about mobile gaming. Also Sony earns much more from sales of third party developers on their consoles, while Nintendo mostly sells their own software making the need for an inhouse platform much smaller.

What? If you sell a lot of your own software, then being able to keep all the profits to yourself is very desirable.

Why would that be impossible on iOS or Android? Also don't forget the much larger audience they could reach with such a move. There is a reason their investors want this, it means making more money.
