IKR? Aside from essentially functioning as an ad for the game in question, and, I suppose, some cross-brand synergy, it's totally meaningless for the end user.

Sony and Nintendo are using the age old product recognition tactic. Its aimed at kids and teens,this specifically anyways. Its for people that will buy this product based off the cover alone. Like when a kid buys a specific toothpaste,snack item,cereal because their favorite character is on the front,same deal. 

 

Smart by both Sony and Nintendo,capitalizes off that market in the same way they advertise to adults with spider-man bundles and Smash bundles

Yes, that's pretty much exactly what I meant in my post. It's just branding. But in the absence of a bundled product that has any monetary value, it's just kinda weird. Like if Mcdonald's ran a "Buy a Big Mac, get a FREE cup of tap water" promotion. You can still get that tap water for free anyways. :)
