I don't really agree with that assessment. The PS Vita is as much of a system as the Wii U is. The PS Vita may not seem like it because it is a handheld system and Sony also doesn't have much history with handhelds given they only had the PSP before. That doesn't change the fact that the PS Vita actually is something Sony had invested a good bit into.
Also, your view of the Wii U sounds like you don't own Nintendo systems. Also, not sure if you noticed or not, but not as many Western 3rd party developers exist for handhelds than for home consoles. If you had a choice between Wii U and the PS Vita, it wouldn't be about "Mario, Zelda" vs "3rd party support." It would be about whether or not you are into handheld gaming or console gaming more, or very specific exclusives.

I think Sony themselves treats Vita as a side system. I wish they would support it as much as PS4. What makes Vita more attractive to me than Wii U is that it has a lot more Japanese 3rd party support. This way, Vita owners will have more Japanese RPG's and such. I only know of one JRPG coming to Wii U: X.

If we talk about niche Japanese 3rd party titles, I would say of course the PS Vita is better for that. It's better than the 3DS for those kinds of titles. But yeah, with your original statement that wasn't very clear and it doesn't really have too much to do with why Wii U doom threads are as common as they are.
