I think the problem is the perception you have of spin-off, because Jarrod pretty much summed it up.  I think you might hold a biased, since you might views spin-off as a negative, when generally it is a positive.

For example SMT: Persona series is a spin-off series, yet it is widely considered by SMT fans to be one of the best, if not better than mainline SMT or MT. 

Type-0 series is without a doubt a new final fantasy series that spun-off of Final Fantasy name. If it was called just Type-0 it was be a new series all together with final fantasy like elements. 

Versus it might be arguable by some, but it is pretty much a spinoff  game from the Final Fantasy 13 brand. 

I think the some Game series Spin-Offs are not regarded as equal with the Original product. but sub seires I believe can be debatable if they are rally Spin-Offs or not.

Like Persona that is a sub series of SMT so it can be debatable if it is a Spin-Off or not. 

and it can be argued that DMC, Oinmusha and Dino Crisis are just Spin-Offs of Biohazard despite not having the name Biohazard on the cover anywhere.        

No.  It isn't debatable.

At all.

A spinoff is ANYTHING that "spins off" the main franchise.

That's the literal definition of a spinoff.  It has nothing to do with opinion.  It's like argueing that a Penguin isn't a bird because you have your own specialized definition of bird which requires "Must be able to fly."

It's not debatable... your just wrong and working off a fabricated definition.

Not siding with anyone here, but if we are going by straight spin off definitions, then Mario is a Donkey Kong spin off. After all, Mario made his debut in a game called Donkey Kong and since then he has had his own games, but only because it's appearance at the first Donkey Kong game.
