Eroges = VNs that focus on romance, and include at least one sex scene per route.
Nukige = This is basically porn, yes.
All Nukiges are Eroges, but not all Eroges are Nukiges.
All Eroges are VNs, but not all VNs (though most, it seems) are Eroges.

I also was under the impression that an eroge was more of a dating sim that also featured the sex scenario, generally as an end result. I wouldn't consider something to be "porn" simply because of the presence of sexual content. Most media in our day and age involving romance has implied sexual content, after all.
