Both handhelds and home consoles have advantages and disadvantages. There's some games (AA, Layton, DR) which I couldn't imagine playing on a home console, and vice versa. I also quite enjoy playing some old school JRPG's on it, too.
Having said that, I most certainly isn't for everyone and I can agree with your critiques. But at the same time a handheld is designed to accompany the home console experience and to offer something new and different on the Go; not to replace it completely. Perhaps that is where your list of games; many of which have been on home consoles; is letting you down a touch.
