....The... lore. I have to admit that part of your argument is the one I assumed you were joking about, but all right.

So let's suppose that Mario Bros.'s setting and characters and elements were propagated throughout the rest of the series, becoming a feeding ground for all or at least the majority of spinoffs (though, uh, this is actually already the case). This would make it the main series?

The Mario series is more than just Mario and Luigi. This is common sense, but you disregard the common sense argument.

That's more than enough of that shit, thank you. I'm asking questions, and that's all I've done so far.

I just remembered this:  Wrong.

You made a positive claim that Super Mario Bros.' "setting and characters and elements" all descend from the original "Mario Bros." game, when my clear recollection is that only the titular brothers really did so. 

[edit: For instance, the enemies are completely different -- crabs, jumping bugs, and not-obviously-Koopa turtles; you don't jump on enemies to kill them but hit them from below, then touch them to kill them; the pipes make enemies loop back through the level; the POW block which didn't get used again until NSMBWii (discounting SMB2US since I presume it was just a sprite swap of some unrelated item).]

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
