Nintendo going mobile was NOT their most important announcement.

I feel like Nintendo is going to aim for a Steam like system between all their consoles and mobiles and QOL services, and sadly it will be subscription based model.

OR it could just be a simplified version like an app store.

A subscription based system (at least a paid one) would only hurt Nintendo in the long run. Nintendo doesn't want to alienate their audience as it is, and if the mobile crowd has to pay more than necessary, they will just ignore Nintendo Mobile for the dozens of free games there are.

Definitely a paid subscription will hurt them big time. Its just that Nintendo will one day implement a paid online service like the other two consoles, and probably wont do it in the best way initially.
