Are they not interested in getting new customers?

Do you not see how it's a bit of a pain for a new customer to have to work this out and then buy one seperately? If I buy something like this, I'd really like it to work without me having to buy an accessory

As for the price, it would cost them a couple of £ to include the charger. My point about the £20 is that if you go through the official Nintendo store, that is the most obvious solution presented to you. When/if I buy one, I don't think I'll be spending £20 on a charger/cradle

The charger and cradle is priced at £20 by Nintendo.

I think its a reasonable assumption that the New 3DS bundle is £20 cheaper than originally planned due to them removing the charger.

I strongly disagree. Accessories tend to have huge margins compared the hardware itself.
