I want to see them expand this more into media and other functional features. I know Nintendo's been hesitant, but this system could really be a better overall media entertainment system than the other systems because of it's controller. Stream Netflix on the t.v. or in bed with your tablet. Want to browse the web, and share videos? It could (potentially) do double surfing, via a Wii Remote for the t.v. and Tablet interface on the other. How about Netflix on one and Web/gaming on the other? This might sound dumb, but I'm sure Nintendo could some with better approaches to it.
Also, I want them to make the connectivity of 3DS and WiiU a forefront of the system now. Seriously, they've teased us too much, since the GCN-GBA days, and now we have two powerful systems that can communicate well with each other. I want to (if possible) use my 3DS in some games if I don't have a tablet controller. 3DS has the gryo controls like the tablet, cameras on it, a touch screen, and 3D screen, along with a single circle pad, and almost the same amount of face buttons. Add the circle pad pro, and you have another Wii U controller!
A game like Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles would so rock finally. How about apps that take advantage of this? Video chat from 3DS to WiiU or a group chat with a mix of both systems? hell ya! Maybe even some online games (maybe the Wii U ones can be eShop games or something) that can play with one another? An upgrade to Swapnote letting you share pictures and messages between 3DS and WiiU friends?
Speaking of friends, make the WiiU and 3DS share the same friend's list and other features, so they better communicate! I think the WiiU could really bring lots to the table, and if it's powered similarily between the PS4 and Xbox 720, I think the WiiU could win every time for me, because of these added functions available only to the system. It would make it unique, and it's one reason I buy most games on PS3 because online is free. If Nintendo's online is free again, and has these cross platform features, I'd buy that version instead.

The controller will be able to be used with multimedia. It was shown off in the reveal trailer. In fact, one person was browsing pictures on the controller while a YouTube video was up on the TV. For gaming and netflix at the same time though? Unsure at this point.
That would be nice actually, especially if you could even use the 3DS screen as a display as well. What would be really neat is if they let us play 3DS games on Wii-U. :D I'd love a large screen to play on.
They'll probably end up doing just that.
I really hope they do. It'd just be a pain to have two seperate lists.
