No. Although you can choose to play Wii U games on the controller's screen, the game itself is still being processed by the console itself (with picture being sent wirelessly to the controller) and ultimately cannot be taken very far until the controller loses signal.

∙ 7y agoYes. The Nintendo Switch can be portable. That's part of the beauty of the "Switch" name. It is designed to be a home console and easily connect to your TV, but it can also be very simply undocked and carried with you... so you have the benefits of a home console AND a portable gaming system.

Well, a comparison cannot be exactly made between the two because the Wii U is a video game console while the Nintendo 3DS is a handheld console. However in my opinion, I would say that the Wii U is more for familes while the 3DS is for indiviuals.
Can you play games for the Wii U on the Wii?
No, unfortunately. The Wii U is backwards compatible for the Wii and some other Nintendo systems, but since the Wii U is newer, the technology is different, and you can't play the games made only for the Wii U on the older system.
Can you play DS games on the Nintendo Wii U?
Of course not they are both completely different consoles. I know 3DS is compatible with the DS. And the Wii is compatible with the gamecube. The DS is a handheld and the Wii U is a home console. Hand held and Home console does not mix. The wii u looks as it plays hand held games but it's a home console. The Wii U console needs to stream games to the controller.
