The Wii and DS both dominated within the same generation. Your point is moot.

Already addressed this: Wii and DS  were different enough that they did not cannibalize each other. Wii U and 3DS  are much more similar.

How?? I fail to see much difference. Gaming on a handheld and gaming on a tv are so completely different that I can't imagine it's an either or situation for anybody, even if the games are similar ...

 look at my post on the previous page. Why is gaming on a handheld and gaming on a TV so different?

Handheld gaming is more solitary, more mobile and generally has its own style, home consoles are the opposite. I can understand how someone is into one or the other, or both, but somebody deciding between the two? That's not happening en mass.

I dont have a link but I remember reading surveys that have shown most people play handhelds at home. I would agree with u on handhelds having there own style in the past but not anymore, look at the traditional Nintendo games on 3DS and Wii U, they are very similar like I stated in my last post meaning the 2 devices have similar styles. Wii U is basically an HD 3DS with half the support and twice the cost.
