Mobile gamers won't give a shit about PSNow, those aren't the types of games that are popular with mobile gamers and who has unlimited data to use outside the house?

Sony is welcome to put PSNow on NX though, lol.

NX will use Android (even if its a custom fork). Nikkei is pretty much always right, I take their word for it. Nintendo is not fighting mobile, they will use mobile as an ally.

Nintendo according to the latest reports want to upgrade smartphone gamers, and therefore are releasing a hybrid console.... If they can give a fuck about Netflix of gaming PS now on the go, they wouldn't really care about nx, actually with P's now u don't even have to carry a different device...... Why would someone have their nx and their smartphone on top of them?

Sony just doesn't have the IP to be successful in the mobile space. It's a totally different ball game where cartoony games dominate. They can throw whatever service they want there. Sony and MS could make mobile apps for 15 years and probably never come up with something as popular as Pokemon Go already is. 

NX will run Android apps IMO, that will give them a big edge with parents looking to get their kids a tablet since it'll be able to kill two birds with one stone (as it can function as the child's Nintendo system too). NX is not looking to compete with phones, it'll be a tablet form factor. I think Nintendo knows trying to keep phones out of people's pockets is impossible.
