Sega and Sony both are making ports of their games to mobile. Sony has released some ps1 games though weigh terrible support and a grand total of 4 out of thousands at that...
Sega actually releases and emulator for ios with old Genesis games which is sells for like 5-10 $ a piece.
I don't know if this means Sega wants to come to android as well but they definitely have the money to muscle Google around.
Nintendo on the otherhand is easy to understand.
Most of their successful games are all in house and are contstantly rereleased for each new system. They have openly said they wont be coming android or ios but they do for example re port Zelda orcania of time and many other classic n64 games or slight variations of remakes to the 3ds etc. For Nintendo the risk is even greater because a large portion of their games are ones which could be emulated on an older console but they want you to pay premium prices to be able to play it on the go. If Android allows someone to play a decent amount of those games all on their phone, without the need to lug around a 3ds as well it is even more enticing then with the Sega and Sony example.
