Also, nothing will come close? 3ds says hi!

He was talking about home consoles. Consoles and handhelds don't compete with one another.

Ah, but they do. Only on forums such as this they sometimes don't when it's closemindedly convenient, but in reality they do, very much.
You can claim they're not in competition until you're blue in the face - they compete on the only front that matters in the end: for the money and time consumers are willing to spend on such entertainment, and that's a simple truth and fact, whether anyone likes it or not. There's just no way around it. Tablets and smartphones compete with handhelds and consoles for that matter, too, and are destroying all of them in sales.

With your reasoning, HBO,Netflix, the internet, Direct TV, sporting events, plays, movies and county fairs are in direct competition with Wii-U. haha

They are in direct competition for dollars, yes. Kind of interesting in that most cord cutters are using streaming services available for free on the Wii U (like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc.) to put the hurt on subscription television services like HBO, Direct TV, etc.
Even as Nintendo was discontinuing services for the Wii they up and offered YouTube, Amazon Prime and others.
All companies have to grab those sales whatever way they can. That is also why the 3DS suddenly has an array of streaming apps available.
