Hey anybody else want this? It's actually been 20 years and I'd appreciate a sequel
 
According to Nintendo themselves:
SMB 1, 2 and 3 already speak for themselves.
Super Mario World = SMB4.
Super Mario Land = SMB5.
Super Mario Land 2 = SMB6.
New Super Mario Bros. = SMB7.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii = SMB8.

Maybe that'll answer enough questions.

Where does Super Mario World 2 fit in? Or do they consider it its own series?
 
SMW2 is more like a Yoshi's Island, like SML3 is more like a Wario World.
 
So, if SMB4 was Super Mario World then the follow on was Yoshi's Island. This would mean Yoshi's Island DS was SMB6 as it was in the same chain as the first SMB.
 
Like I've said, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land don't count as SMB games at Nintendo.
Nintendo even said in many Press Releases, that the last Super Mario Bros. game that was released before New Super Mario Bros., was Super Mario Land 2.

Especially when looking at the release dates, SML2 (1993) vs SMW2 (1995), that already confirms everything.
 
Pretty much any Super Mario title that is not Mario Kart or an RPG title is mainstream by my eyes.

Super Mario Land = SMB4
Super Mario World = SMB5
Super Mario Land 2 = SMB6
Super Mario 64 = SMB7
Super Mario Sunshine = SMB8
New Super Mario Bros. = SMB9
Super Mario Galaxy = SMB10
New Super Mario Bros. Wii = SMB11
Super Mario Galaxy 2 = SMB12
Super Mario 3D Land = SMB13
 
Super Mario Bros. doesn't necessary mean 'main series'.
It's purely the concept that makes it SMB.
SM64, SMS, SMG, and SMG2 have a different category, but Super Mario 3D Land just fits into the SMB category.

Well that game takes little bits from other main Mario Games.
