No they don't. I have a Switch and I never take the AC adapter anywhere. The very few times I have needed to recharge on the go (like on the bus or on the subway where there are no available power outlets) I have had to use a portable battery bank which I also use for my tablet and smartphone as I also do not carry around the charger for them. It is the same case with my Vita and 3DS, the AC unit for all of these portables is at my house.
Also how is anyone being "suckered".
1. The store says that is is a second unit system. Which quite literally means it is for people that already have a unit and are looking for another.
2. The page mentions all of the components that are missing and what it comes with.
3. It even has a side by side pricing comparison.

the page mentions this, will stores as well? ok you dont have to take your charger every where, but imagine how annoying it would be if you can't charge your switch because the other person is charging, this can be very annoying.

This bundle is only being sold though Nintendo's own store, it has not been announced as an official retail bundle (yet?). There have been quite a few items that Nintendo of Japan has sold only their online stores that have not been sold elsewhere. But assuming this becomes like the 3DS's that came without a charger, those systems had both listings on the websites and images on the product box that showed that the AC adapter was not included.
As for charging multiple units at once, you can purchase splitter cables (I have one that I use to simultaneously charge my New 3DS XL and regular 3DS at home), these are very cheap, particularly for devices like Switch which have a standard USB-C port. Again having SKUs without an AC adapter out of the box has been fairly standard in Japan since the DSi, so this is not really new. BTW, it is not only Nintendo that does this. Amazon, for example, also does not include a charger with some of its Kindle tablets.
