Soundwave, you are assuming that power is what decides the fate of a console.
Wii U isn`t doing bad because it`s less powerful than a PS4 or Xbox 720. It`s doing bad because Nintendo failed to show how different it is from Wii; provide enough original/exclusive games from launch until now (that means no droughts and as little ports as possible).

Of all Wii U`s problems, power isn`t one of them.

Relasing the tablet on the side would be a very bad idea - like it always is. Developers wouldn`t have a real idea on who would own it and for what purpose. Given that it´s there from the start, they can actually spend time and resources in taking advantage of the tablet because they know every single Wii U owner, owns one.

Bingo

Seconded, sure Nintendo could have focused a bit more on getting more power from the system or making it easier to port stuff from other systems. But the Wii U's biggest problems especially in the Western territories is Nintendo failings in presenting to their potential audiences.
