Why are handhelds often seen as inferior or not as important as home consoles?

You really don't see the reason? I guess you have never seen any trailer for a console game ever then. Looks like you need to study more to crack this mystery.

That's your hivemind speaking.  You actually like handheld games more, you just don't know it.  You should ignore what forums tell you and listen to what forums tell you.

As someone who has played about 100 times more hours on mobile than on PS4 this gen I still regard dedicated handhelds as the worst gaming medium. Buying a handheld to play games on the go is like buying a second living room TV to play console games.
