Also no AC Adapter. Yes, you read that right. |
Apparently you didn't, though.
It has an AC adapter - just not a redesigned one. It's going to use the same one that the DSi:XL, 3DS, and WiiU use.

But this is what I read:
"
Nintendo will release a bigger Nintendo 3DS console later this year.
In Japan it's called the Nintendo 3DS LL and offers a 4.88" top screen. The total viewing area on the top and bottom screens has increased by a massive 90%. It comes with a 4GB SD card but, to keep costs down, no AC adaptor.
3DS XL launches in North America for $199.99 on 19th August, alongside New Super Mario Bros. 2.
In Europe, 3DS XL launches on 28th July."
What is your source?

I've seen a plethora of sources (just search Google) that just say it uses the same AC adapter as the 3DS and DSi:XL, which from images is also the same one as the WiiU.
As for whether or not it would include one or make you buy one separately, it's common sense telling me that much, unless someone comes out with it direct from the Nintendo Direct. Who on earth sells an electronic device and doesn't provide you with a way to power it without buying separately? It's absolutely ludicrous. I'm 95% certain your source misunderstood something.
I'm guessing the actual presentation said something along the lines of, "In order to cut costs, there will not be a new AC adapter. The device will use the same adapter as the 3DS and DSi-XL." Which COULD be interpreted a couple ways.

I understand where you're coming from.
I don't know 100% which is the true interpretation.
But at least mine is in print. I do agree it's ridiculous not to have one.
