Never said it was a bad thing. I haven't thought of a good hatsu in a while, so I'm just gonna copy and paste my Manipulation Bullet for you to look at:

Nen Type: Manipulation(main), Emission, Conjuration

Name: Manipulation Bullet(コントロール·キャリバーControl Caliber)

Description: In short, I would use several different Nen types to make a bullet, that forces the target to follow a specific set of rules. The Nen types involved would be Conjuration, Emission and obviously Manipulation. First, I would conjure a shell casing for the bullet to go in, and place my Manipulation Nen in the shape of a bullet inside the shell case. I could then conjure a firearm of some kind to shoot the bullet, as well as attachments such as silencers and scopes. When it has entered the targets brain, they would be forced to follow pre-set commands. Now to go into more detail.

The bullets I conjure, as I have hinted before, have pre-set commands that they are made of. The best way I can describe it is by saying this. Let's say I've conjured my shell casing, and then I've put my Nen(in the shape of a bullet) inside. That Nen contains the command "Say my hatsu idea is awesomesauce", so as soon as it enters someones brain and they say, "Your hatsu is awesomesauce", the command has been fulfilled and they would die since there's a bullet sized hole in their brain. And since I can imagine joining the phantom troupe with this power, I'll give a phantom troupe example. I'm about to do the full on assault and go wild outside the big mafia auction. Before hand I've made dozens of bullets to fire all with the command "kill every mafia member you see not being controlled by my Nen", to give myself an army of mafia puppets all with that command, killing everything they see. The bullets themselves would pack a massive punch since they're made out of nen and we've seen how powerful Nen bullets can be, but wouldn't be as powerful as Franklin's since I've only got 80% mastery over the Emission Nen type. I can also use a bit of transmutation to change the colour of my bullets to make them easier to differentiate.

As you might have noticed however, my ability contains some similarities to Illumi's, what with him using projectiles containing his Nen to manipulate people, but there are some differences, some making his Hatsu stronger, some making mine. First his advantages:

Illumi can order his needle men around as he pleases

Illumi can use different amounts of needles to make them more responsive

Illumi can use his needles to kill

Now, my advantages:

Because my bullets can only contain one main goal and can not be changed later, the things I manipulate can be especially good at following that one set of instructions

My Manipulation Bullets are. Well... Bullets! Despite Illumi's skill, I doubt he can throw his needles faster than a bullet.

My Nen bullets are made out of pure emitted Nen(aside from the shell casing), meaning that not Nen users cannot see them making them very difficult to avoid, and I can use In to conceal my bullets from Nen users as well.

I can make different fire arms to fire my bullets as I said, and while I would prefer and normally use a Deagle and Magnum, a Mini Gun is not out of the equation!

Limitations:

1) The commands put into each bullet can be no longer than a sentence, and can only contain up to three connectives.

2) The different firearms can obviously only use their own bullet caliber. The problem is that for each caliber I go up, the amount of Nen needed to create such a bullet doubles.

3) The bullet must enter either the head or spinal cord of the target. It if hits anywhere else, the target receives no damage, meaning the only way to kill a target with these bullets is a hit to the brain.

4)I can only use 1 bullet per person, unless I get a direct hit to the frontal lobe, at which point I can use one more bullet, and therefore one more command

5) The firearms I conjure can only fire my Manipulation Bullets.
