Why is picking up a charger from the store you are buying the New 3DS from such a big deal?!

This is being blown way out of proportion

The article itself does not blow it out of proportion, but tells as it is: "I also recommend that Nintendo put AC adapters in the box when it releases the NN3DS XL, but their failure to do so is not a deal breaker (though it is annoying)."

Not a deal breaker, but a bit annoying is exactly what I would say about this. Interesting enough though, that nobody cares about the real problem - that the charger is propietary.

But there are 3ds party chargers for 3DS. I have one.

Here is one for less than $5 http://www.amazon.com/3DS-XL-2DS-DSi-Adapter-Nintendo/dp/B008MIGV1E/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1421341748&sr=8-5&keywords=3ds+charger
