Just like game consoles no longer come with bundled games despite being useless without a game. You're big enough to know what you need. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Player2@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 years ago (2 children) They still come with a power cable and a controller though, which are necessary to actually turn on the machine. If you don't already have a charger and didn't notice that the device you're getting doesn't come with one, you probably can't even turn it on to see if it works before having to buy more things. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] termus@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago Do they come with HDMI cables? Haven't bought one in a while but back in the day my Nintendo consoles didn't come with RF adapters. I remember Christmas 97 and not having one for my N64 and it drove me insane. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Ulv@feddit.nu 2 points 2 years ago Phones are generaly charged because its better for the battery but i am not saying that im not miffed about chargers no longer inkluded permalink fedilink source parent
