If the main games were available for puchase on smartphones they would be more popular than Pokemon GO.
Why does Nintendo insist on making us pirate or use emulators?
That's crap. Nobody is buying full games on App Store and Google Play. Everyone has learnt that by now. And even for the few with a pricetag, no game more expensive than 5 or 6 dollars has ever crossed the top 100. There is no way Nintendo is going to lose their spectacular library into the sea of App Store/Google Play when that same library is the only thing driving Nintendo's hardware sales.
Go is popular only because:
>it's free
>muh 90s nostalgia
>muh it brings people together
>it's the cool thing of the week
>$40 30 hour games
>More popular with the mainstream audience than F2P touch-to-win meme-of-the-month

You're wrong and I don't even have to prove you wrong. That's how wrong you are.
