1. Games. It needs more games. While it has a few gems, its largely not setup for mass market appeal.
2. 2 DSi or 1 3DS. Without #1, I have no reason to buy it.
Me personallly, my kids are earnign DSi's right now. They have saved about $60 each. I didn't even offer them 3DS as I am worried about long-term effects of 3D viewing on eyes. Probably just being paranoid, but I know DSi has many of similar media features and a huge game library. Plus, I can get two for the price of one 3DS.
3DS needs a pokemon, nsmb, casual games, etc. Current list of nearly all remakes or unknown IPs is not a good launch.
