People are upset because at the end of the day only execustives and people that heavily invested in nintendo will ever profit from this.
From the side of the consumer you now have all the games and effort split between 3 platforms, bear in mind that nintendo is barely able to support 2 platforms. This will lead in a decreased amount of games for consoles, especially since mobile games are cheaper to make and will make more money.
So for example instead of making console pokemon games genius sonority will instead make pokemon shuffle 2.
If you like high quality games this isnt good new at all and unless they announce soon that they massively upsized their studios(and i am talking about a real huge number) or bought a big video game company like Capcom or Square Enix i dont see a good future for their upcomming console effort and expect their next console to have worse droughts than the wii u.
In short if you are a investor its time to pop up the champagne bottle, if you like games there is reason to be pessimistic.

If you have more money, you buy more studios, and you make more games for all the systems you have. And the mobile thing is a colaboration with another company, I don´t think all the work is on Nintendo.
And things like Pokemon Shuffle don´t seem very hard and expensive to do.

Thats why i said unless nintendo does this. While i see reason that nintendo wont do it since nintendo never did a aggressive buyout and isnt really keen on buying other studios in general, there still a slim chance that they realize that they arent big enough to keep on going like this.
The problem with colaborations is that you need someone who wants to do them first. and if your console isnt really rolling in sales owning the majority of the market most 3rd party developers will prefer to make multiplats instead.
And if genius sonority didnt work on a super secret then pokemon shuffle took several months even with base of the game already donedue to pokemon trozei.
