Just imagine the kind of money they'll make if they bring over Mario aswell. Investors will put more pressure on them now after this success.

I don't think Mario translates well to mobile devices, not without a gamepad.

But I think some of their IPs could have even greater success on mobile.

Yup.  I think people get the wrong idea when they hear the words 'Nintendo' and 'mobile'.  I doubt Nintendo is going to do something like port over Smash or Mario Kart over to mobile because, like you said, they just don't translate well to that platform.  I can see Nintendo making mobile-centric spinoffs for those IPs that cater to casual audiences though -- and that's probably what they're going to do.
