If the console manages to have 3/5 hours of battery, without overheating and making too much noise being like 7 times more powerful than Vita, yes, is definitely rightas qa handheld, the size is not an argument when people this days are used to carry bigger tablets around.
Also I dont see how is inadequate for a console, that thing is like 3 times the power of wiiu when docked.

Vita is old and inadequate in 2017. It's not a good comparison point to use.
Mobile Phones (Cell Phones for the Yanks) are not only more powerful than the Switch but can get competitive battery life. - Decent handsets can avoid thermal issues.
This is why the Switch is terrible from a hardware perspective, I can do a technical breaddown for you if you desire?

And how is it not inadequate for a console? The Xbox One when it released was already trending towards the lower-end of the mid-range market in comparison to the PC.
It's been years since that device launched and it was ridiculed for it's lack of power.
The Switch is going to be a fraction of that capability. A fraction. Think about that for a moment.
The WiiU whilst a large jump over the Wii was only marginally better than the decade old Xbox 360, having it better than that isn't some kind of achievement, mobile eclipsed that level of performance a long time ago.
JXD has the S192 "Gamepad Tablet" with a Tegra K1, I wouldn't be surprised if it was faster than the Switch, yet also gets 6-10 hours of battery life like my older JXD Gamepad.
The point is, I am displeased with Nintendo's terrible hardware choices, I am a hardware enthusiast, I want companies to give their best.
Nintendo could have made better hardware choices... And that fact cannot be disputed.
If they can give it to me cheaper without the screen, battery, detachable controls, dock, all at a super-low Ouya-like price point? I will be happy with that. I don't want to pay hundreds for such a low-powered device when my Phone is clearly superior in every single aspect.

Wii U came out 6 years after XBOX 360, not ten years.
You cannot say hardware enthusiast and Ouya together. And if you like buying horrendous hardware (like Ouya), then I wish you nothing but the best but you are keeping yourself handily out of this conversations integrity lines.
However, that tablet you listed cost 400 dollars... dead on arrival. There is no market for that thing and you know it. I get that you may like it, but that does not mean there is a sustainable market for the thing. Buying things because you want tech things is good for you, but in no way are you a represenative of the casual or even core gaming market. Nintendo's decisions do not fit you... but then you seem OK with a crass product like Ouya (at any price... that thing was complete ass it is offensive that people paid for it) which alone places you way outside this product's measures. It seems quite silly to say you want a Wii U without the features in 2017 (even for 99 dollars) knowing that a console like that would have no market today (especially since it had no market five years ago) but then say you are a hardware enthusiast. That screams of hypocrisy... just like your stance on Oyua.
