as expected this will be a mega-success for years

I just wonder if this will make Nintendo transition towards mainly being a phone game dev/publisher - their mega-IPs certainly could be extremely profitable there

No they wont, because they know that their IPs popularity and its maintainance comes from the console games and their fanbase of hardcore gamers.I mean, this game success could simply mean that they will keep making games for the market(like 1 every 5 or 6 months), and if Nintendos strategy pays out(of that mobile games bringing gamers back to dedicated gaming devices, which seeing the success of Pokemon GO, isnt far fetched of happening), I see them never abandoning consoles and handheld gaming.
