Miyamoto said they were no longer going after the casual; mobile games might take care of their fleeing kids market. So, only the core remain to be taken care of.
I doubt that with this new Nintendo approach to gaming (mobile games, account system on several devices) Nintendo won't also go after the core gamers.

They are spreading out, not the other way around.
They know that kids aren't enough and with the casual gone they need something that appeals to the market that can save them.

Mobile will take care of casuals. It will help with kids, but Nintendo always is heavily invested in kids so no doubt NX will be designed heavily with the needs of kids in mind too. 

Smartphone buys Nintendo cover to make NX more unconventional is what I think (rather than the other way around). Now Nintendo's designers can simply come up with wacky ideas and because NX doesn't neccessarily have to carry the company, it's not a huge issue if it doesn't do maybe that great. So long as its profitable I think Nintendo will be relatively OK with it. Of course they'd like it to be super successful (just like every company making any product would) but it's not a "this has to be a success or we're finished as a company" type scenario anymore. 

What if simply NX is Android cross-compatible? Nintendo will make some mobile games. On the NX console you'll get Nintendo mobile games + Nintendo "premium" games + optimized versions of 3rd party mobile games. (example. EA will never make a decent FIFA game for 3DS, but they make already an android version for tablets. If the console is able to run android code EA will only need to "add buttons" to sell the same game at a premium price).

This would make sense even with their new cross-platform account system.
