For mobile top because I keep accidentally pressing the home button with my hand and it's annoying.

And for PC on the top of course because anything else is illegal.

Nova launcher (super customizable and clean and you can unlock premium with revanced Manager)

KWGT (allows you to create custom widgets for your phone and has a very good editor so you can jam pack all the info you want into one widget)

Revanced Manager (ad free YouTube with extra features like return dislike and sponsor block and more)

Xmanager (free Spotify premium)

Vlc (best way to play video and audio files)

Fdroid (alternative app store which allows you to basically find a clone of most apps but open source and privacy friendly, plus a ton of other privacy respecting apps)

Aurora store (Google Play store but more customization and less Google tracking stuff attached)

Seal (allows you to download videos and stuff from basically any big site)

It's not really fair to compare it to the wii u because the wii u was a handheld console while this is basically a hand held gaming streaming device. The wii u is more compared to other handheld consoles/computers like the steam deck or Asus rog ally.

Android phones help try to bridge the gap but aren't the best.
