I admit the difference between spinoff and mainline game is sometimes hazy. For purposes of this, I'm counting reboots as not spinoffs.
I'm thinking it may be Devil May Cry? --- Not changing this sig until I decide to change this sig. Started: July 6, 2005 ... Copied to Clipboard!

So basically, what is the most popular game that isn't too popular? That's a tricky one to nail down. Oregon Trail? Idk, a lot of potential candidates I could name like Portal or Dota seem to have spinnoffs. The right pick is almost certainly gonna be a ftp game or super cheap and accessible. Team Fortress 2 perhaps?

damn, thought Doom was a good choice but apparently there's a handful of mobile spinoffs.

Don't forget Golden Abyss It's weird that I don't think either of these are spin-offs but Uncharted actually does have a spin off in Uncharted: Fight For Fortune. It was bad. And a Vita exclusive. So no one heard of it. (I get why the other two would be considered spin-offs but for me they were always part of the main series.) --- Moops? "I thought you were making up diseases?

hm... if we're using DMC as the standard it means weird ports are okay (Pachinko) and other mediums don't count. it's rather surprising there's no random mobile side game for it considering it's Capcom.
if we're talking sales, Bioshock is notably bigger and should qualify. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh wait in that case, Kingdom Hearts. ...this logic is frustrating in how it might be true. even the fucking rhythm game that just came out is canon to KH3's story. now that's a weird one, a series full of spinoffs that made them all interconnected games upon the release. however! you can totally have spinoffs mean "not part of the main story." side stories might be canon but they can still be spinoffs. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. ...

Smash Bros. is the only answer. No spinoffs at all, 62 million copies sold at an average of 12.4 million per game, also a huge cultural touchstone and gets critical acclaim and awards, so its got all the bases covered.
Wii is weird because its a franchise of franchises, all spinning off from Wii Sports. They are all spinoffs but that one. Also Nintendoland is basically a spinoff without the name. DMC probably isnt that close to the top because its not a very big franchise. Which isnt a diss! Its just kind of mid-level. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ...

I'm assuming GTA: Chinatown Wars is a spinoff. I feel like every lego game is a spinoff so no idea if that counts or not lol.
