No, you missed the post I mentioned the Dreamcast release back in 2000. Since then Q*Bert releases have been console exclusive to Playstation.

That is not true. 

Steam, Android, IOS....

As multiple people have stated. Sony Pictures for all purposes acts as a seperate company. They lisence for a fee. Nintendo is lisencing Mario to Sony Pictures. Nintendo obviously doesn't see them as the same thing. There have been many Sony Pictures lisenced games on competing platforms, some exclusive to said platform. Think about that. That isn't more of a sign that Nintendo games will be coming to PS4 than this.

Let's look at some other examples:
Jeapordy a Sony Pictures property on the Wii-U, X360, Wii.
Wheel of Fortune a Sony Pictures property  Wii-U, Wii, DS.
Ghostbusters a Sony Pictures property PC, PS3, X360, Wii, DS, PS2
Spider-Man a Sony Picture Property Xbox, PS2, GBA, PSP
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Xbox One, PS4, X360, Wii-U, PS3, 3DS

Sony Pictures lisences a bunch of it's properties to third parties. This is no different. A third party paid for a Sony Pictures lisence.

You're the second person not familiar with the term console exclusive I guess.

Those other IPs are valid arguments. However, I still believe it wasn't coincidental Q*Bert was only on Playstation.
