One gripe among many is the lack of a second analog stick.  This has been remedied somewhat by the addition of the Circle Pad Pro peripheral.  The device is bulky and ugly, but after the initial shock wears off, it's actually very comfortable.  Problems arise when you consider that it has a short battery life (I've use rechargeable batteries and I've had to recharge it twice already) and that it doesn't work with anything other than a handful of 3DS titles.  Try using a feature like Swapnote on your 3DS.  You'll have to remove the CPP to use your stylus (an absolute must for writing messages).  The trigger (Rz) and the R button that comes with the CPP won't even work.  You're better off not even using the device unless you're playing Resident Evil or Metal Gear.  With those games, it works like a dream.

It has hundreds of hours of battery life. Your rechargeables are busted, bud. Put in the normal AAA battery it came with and you'll not have to recharge it for a year.
