No, you are wrong. Completely wrong. Wii U was significantly more lopsided during the holiday season.
How much of the console's yearly sales came from just December:
2014: Vita - 24.39% Wii U - 31.76%
2015: Vita - 26.56% Wii U - 34.74%
2016: Vita - 19.81% Wii U - 10.77%
How much of the console's yearly sales came from November+December:
2014: Vita - 32.96% Wii U - 45.52%
2015: Vita - 34.81% Wii U - 49.57%
2016: Vita - 27.11% Wii U - 19.74%
In 2015, Vita actually sold 3k more than Wii U from January to October, but Wii U outsold Vita by 780k for the entire year because of the holiday season. (2.68M to 3.46M)
Vita was never a big seller during the holidays. It has a low ratio of holiday to non-holiday sales, even for PlayStation consoles.
As for proof:
Wii U 2016: May: 102,649 June: 123,129 July: 105,281
Vita 2017: May: 38,693 June: 44,572 July: 34,029
Vita is barely selling over a third of what Wii U did last year.

By winter I only mean end of December to March.If I meant holidays I would say holidays, but Japan doesn't have strong Novembers.
Vita 2017> Wii U 2016 Yet there you have >300k during the slow months for Wii U and only 120k for Vita. Further proof that Vita sold a ton during Winter in comparison.

Wii U 2016:
Jan: 158,865
Feb: 150,214
Mar: 190,174
Vita 2017:
Jan: 149,358
Feb: 96,991
Mar: 97,581
Even in Vita's supposed best time of the year, it sold less than Wii U did last year. And Vita 2017 is NOT ahead of Wii U 2016, what are you even talking about?
Wii U 2016 (total): 1,525,551
Wii U 2016 (by end of July): 955,629
Vita 2017 (by end of July): 515,375
