Although it's just a piece of plastic, I'm thinking it makes the consumer feel like they're getting more for their money. The fact that you get a game and a piece of hardware for the cost of a normal game is pretty cool.
Then again, Mario Kart probably needs this advantage to compete with 2D Mario (see SNES, DS).
