I may be underestimating Mario Tennis, but these seems like a garbage bundle to me. Why not bundle in a game that people actually want like Zelda or Mario Kart?

Because they want to promote and push most recent 1st party release that stands to benefit more from a bundle than two of their biggest games that are going to sell regardless.

The best games to bundle are the ones that will sell regardless.  Bundles aren't about selling the software.  They are about selling the hardware and increasing the install base.  Games that sell regardless make the hardware the most attractive.

Mario Tennis released on June 22 and by June 30 was over 1 million, seems like a game people want.

Yeah, I know it is doing well for a tennis game.  Like I said, I may be underestimating Mario Tennis, but I don't think it is on the level of Zelda or Mario Kart or Splatoon 2.
