The main concept they tried to sell with the WiiU was dual screen play. The Switch totally moved away from that. Yeah, it's definitely a quite different concept. 

this is absolutely absurd to say these consoles are "different concepts". That's like saying that a main feature of the dualshock was vibration, but the six axis has motion controls and no vibration, so the six axis is a totally different controller than the dual shock.

We're talking about the main selling point of both consoles. WiiU was all about dual sceen gaming. A concept which clearly failed. Switch is about portability. No dual screen gaming at all was shown in the trailer. And...are you comparing the main sell point of a console with a rumbling controller? I don't think that's a good comparison at all imo. It's highly irrelevant to the PS4 obvious sucess. At least, I've bought the PS4 because it has a great games library, not because motion controls.

So, yeah, WiiU and Switch are nothing alike. Switch is what the WiiU should have been. WiiU was lost with a clearly flawed concept.
