I dunno, maybe it is the price for early adoption. Then again everything on sale there was 25$ I believe (or 24.99 for the technical ones here).

Personally, I won't be buying any of these until I can get red, blue, yellow, green, in that order from 1st-4th players, as that is the classic SSB color selection. I had that on the N64 and part of me died inside when I realized I would have to paint my GC controllers if I wanted it on the GC.
It just makes sense when you have to swap controllers when you have more than 4 people gathered around a TV for SSB. You can immediately tell on sight which controller is which so it speeds the process along.

Not when someone is holding it across the room and that light could be any one of the four.
Green will still be green, though (yeah, I know, I'm an anal-retentive bastard...)

I've always thought that controllers should tell the game what colour they are (it could be as simple as a 3-byte RGB value) so that multiplayer games could use them as default distinguishing colours. Unless, of course, you have more than one controller of the same colour, but it'd still be neat. With 6kb of memory in each Wii Remote, it could be possible...if they make different colour Wii Remotes, that is.

Some GCN games do just that. The only one in my collection is... NFL2k3. It was free, I swear.

Ah, but what if there were magnetic dog tags? Hmmm?
I don't usually buy somewhat extraneous game accessories. I do have a fairly nice NES carrying bag (official Nintendo product) that holds all my NES games, though. I suppose if/when I do buy them, I prefer official first-party stuff when available.

Pre-emptively fixed.
Seriously, carrying cases are useful for actual games. This other stuff...it's just more junk for me to stow away when it's time to move. But I understand some people will be interested in it, just like I keep all the boxes for my old games. Why? So I can sell them used. But I haven't done that in like 10 years.

Apparently, the Zelda design is exclusive to Target. Any chance of getting a better pic?
