Whilst the range of the WiiU is limited... I am able to play it 2 rooms over from my living room just fine, in bed.
The construction materials of your home and console placement makes a difference.

Nintendo could have installed better antenna's as well... But the range issue is because of the insane amount of bandwidth being sent over the 5ghz spectrum in real time... But antenna mods can make a big difference.

Either way, the Wii U was a semi-decent attempt at making a hybrid console, it has a ton of caveats however.. But the Gamepad I find more comfortable to hold and use than a Switch's default tiny Joycons.

I'm fine with them, and I have giant hands. The only controller I had an issue with was the Gamecube, it tended to cramp my hands when playing more actiony games like Mario Kart; also the dpad is made for brownies. I had a similar hand cramp issue with the Dreamcast controller, though not as severe. My one major issue with the joycons is that sometimes I'll drop my hands so that my leg is in the way and the controller desyncs. That can be annoying. I find controller problems have less to do with the size of the controller and more to do with how they force your hands to go; the Dreamcast controller might be the second largest I own (next to the Wii U) but it my hands are too large for it. The Joycons allow a ton of freedom, and smaller controllers like the NES, PSX, and SNES do the same.

Nah. Can't stand the Joycons for anything semi-fast paced.

The Analogue stick is too small, the buttons are to small and close-together, no D-Pad, it makes using them for anything that is even slightly faced-paced a chore.

I personally don't undock my Switch though... And I use a Pro-Controller that resembles an Xbox One controller, it's a far better experience, I would sell my Switch in a heartbeat if Nintendo released a non-portable Switch.

But hey, we are all different at the end of the day.
