Good for Nintendo business-wise ... they will make a ton of money doing this.
Bad for gaming enthusiasts and die-hard gaming fans IMO.
In my opinion this is like opening pandora's box ... once the box is open, there will be no closing it.
Nintendo will get the taste of smartphone profits and it will lead to progressively more and more smartphone games and smartphone focus. The day where Nintendo's 2-3 top money making games are on mobile and not console/dedicated handheld are coming. And when that happens -- money talks, Nintendo will follow the money.
