I hear you can charge it with a WiiU-GameCube adapter.

Isn't it mini/micro USB? If so then leaving it out is the correct decision. For the environment.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Nope Ninty use there own charge ports. There reason is everyone owned a DS, so you should have a charger.

Will the Nintendo DS Lite charger work with it?

Nintendo is stingy. They're looking to make more money of people buying their official proprietary charger, which is like $10 I think. It's BS, really. I mean seriously, I can't think of a single electronic, with a battery, I've ever bought that didn't come with a charger.

If they use proprietary plugs, they're scumbags anyway.

They are thinking $199 looks a lot better than $219 (or however much the charger costs their)
Plus they are saving money of current owners of one so really its best for the consumer.
Is it that hard to grab a charger too if you need it??


You're kidding me right? Both those excuses are weak. If you think a simple plastic charger is worth $20 then you're insane. And this isn't doing previous owners any favours. There are people out there who would like having more than one charger.

Then buy more than one.
