No, no, definitivily not wiiu.
Wiiu had miiverse
Wiiu hard as many ports as possible at launch
Wiiu had free online
Wiiu had multimedia capabilities
Wiiu was coming after a highly successfull console
Switch has nothing of those.
People compared wiiu to dreamcast. Well, wrong, it was more comparable to saturn. Switch will be the fair comparisson to dreamcast.

"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
