TL;DR

Nintendo designer Shigeru Miyamoto said that mobile apps will not be the primary path of future Mario games, and the company's strategy going forward is a "hardware and software integrated gaming experience." Miyamoto cited control intuitiveness as a key part of the gaming experience, making smartphone development problematic. While Nintendo's mobile games have been successful, they pale in comparison to the gross of Mario Kart 8 for Wii U and Switch.
