Do we have any other examples in games of a spin-off so vastly exceeding the cultural footprint of the originating series?

The Sims is a spinoff of Sim City, but is so much more popular most people probably think Sim City is the spinoff

There used to be a time in the distant past when Warcraft was known as an RTS franchise

The Nier franchise itself is a spinoff of Drakengard

So Automata has outclassed Nier which has outclassed Drakengard

Many Smash bros characters are best known for being in the game rather than the games they come from, does that count?

Fortnite: Save the World getting mogged so hard that it has to be referred to with its subtitle so that it isn't confused with what is now known as just "Fortnite" is probably the most extreme example I can think of.

Accurate image, persona might be the popular one but SMT is the actual cool one, did Don ever go to space and saved the universe? I don't think so.

>for a time
I'd argue that it's still going on. There was that brief resurgence with Origins and Legends, but Rayman was quickly shoved into the shadows again after that for Mario+Rabbids instead.

I was thinking of that too but its a completely separate game

Wario Land took over the Mario Land series
WarioWare has gotten consistently more games than Wario Land.

A completely different game set in the same universe is what the term "spin off" means

Three Houses is pretty much a spinoff and it's by far the biggest game in the franchise.
