Well, okay, let's say people would choose Kart or Brawl. So why wouldn't Nintendo do such a thing? I figure, because they know that people are apt to buy Kart & Brawl anyways. In other words, by bundling Sports as opposed to those other games, Nintendo will generate more sales for themselves (because the inclusion of a game justifies a higher price -- bundling Sports is selling a game).
Nintendo figures, if they bundle Sports, they're likely to sell Sports and Kart to a customer. If they bundle Kart, maybe they'll only sell Kart.
Which means... that they're selling copies of Sports.
Which is why we count them.
