If you have a custom UI, you can give that Control two Conditions:

          <Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="236" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17" Default="yes" Text="[ButtonText_Next]">
            <Publish Event="NewDialog" Value="HtVerifyReadyDlg">1</Publish>
            <Condition Action="disable"><![CDATA[NOT(&App1=3 OR &App2=3)]]></Condition>
            <Condition Action="enable"><![CDATA[(&App1=3 OR &App2=3)]]></Condition>
          </Control>

MSI native UI doesn't allow you to enable and disable a control in the way you want. The best you can do is write event conditions that check that if none of your features are selected to display a modal dialog with an error message otherwise display the next dialog. Be sure to consider the ramifications of a maintenance / change and/or upgrade scenario.
