It makes sense as an "all in one".

A gun for Duck Hunt type guns, two controllers for platformers, and a racing wheel for driving games.

Similar to the NES bundle with trackpad and gun, the NES could just be sold on its own for cheaper adoption.

For new entertainment stuff, a low barrier to entry is huge.

Also makes sense for Dr Who, considering early design method was "fuck it, stick a plunger on the robots arm".
