On the other hand, if Nintendo had made a dedicated console and a dedicated handheld, there would be far fewer games for the former as Nintendo's development teams would be split between the two instead of focused on one device, and since there isn't (and never has been) room on the market for three similar systems to flourish, the console would be pretty much a guaranteed flop and as such would suffer from the same miserable software droughts as Wii U. 

I don't remember a drought back when the Wii or the Game cube or better yet the Nintendo 64 was on the market and Nintendo had handhelds back then too with their teams split up between both systems.

And 10 years ago 3 home systems were flourishing together, the Wii the PS3 and the Xbox360.

And to completely murder this last argument, just a friendly murder of course The market is now even bigger than it was 10 years ago so whatever the figures of that past gen, the figures can potentially be even bigger now that the video games industry has grown further in size.

Everything you said is wrong

N64, GC & Wii are all known for having droughts.

10 years ago PS3/360 were doing just ok while Wii was doing great then a few years later PS3/360 started to pick up the pace while Wii began to decline.
