Why did Sony go with Super Smash Bros. too instead of Super Mario Bros. too?

He (Bananaking) has stated that HE didn't think LBP was superior to SMB, but have made it look like as if game sites and the public in general think this is the case. The rest of the thread has been aimed at debunking this statement, that the public actually thinks that SMB is the better game.

And I am positive that the OP knew precisely that LBP would be brought up.

From the looks of it, it's the other way around. The OP asked a question and the guy answered.

This was his original post "its because Sony has a superior 2D platforming game, its called littlebigplanet" 

The response? First, people responded by saying sales = quality, therefore LBP was inferior. Then, people responded with meme gifs as if his opinion was absurd and not be taken seriously. Then, Samuship was the first to claim Mario was the superior game, so of course, Bananaking used more support with Metacritic scores (which he later edited in his first post).

After Bananaking responded to that post, it's been everyone jumping on him.

I'm not gonna go back and read this whole thread again, so I'll have to take your word for it.
