I've never be against the concept per se as I've stated multiple, multiple times here, the a big chunk of Nintendo's mainstream audience is on phone devices and they would do very, very well on mobile. I would say it's hard to argue against that now.
My issue always was that they couldn't compete with Apple or Samsung, but now having examined that a little further ... they don't need to. Apple/Samsung sell like 120-200 million devices/year, Nintendo doesn't need to sell that much to have success, even 10 million phone models/year would more than justify the effort. If the 3DS was selling 10 million more units/year it would be considered largely a big success.
The key is Android is a forkable OS that you can customize. If Nintendo had to make their own OS from scratch, I would say hell no. But if they can use Android the same way Amazon does with their Kindle Phone and tablets, then it could do everything a regular phone does with little/no effort from Nintendo.
