Funnily enough, that's exact what many Nintendo fans said about Ninty developing games for mobile. The vast majority said there was no way and that since Ninty had like 20 billion in the bank, they could survive for x number of years just fine. Fast forward to the release of Pokemon Go and the narrative changed as those saying they should make games for mobiles were proven right.
It'd be interesting to see how long it takes for Ninty to go 3rd party and how people here will react.
