I think, it might be because Mario gets all the praise and the good games and the great spin-offs and Sonic gets picked on (because there were some bad games in the past), some okay games and awful spin-offs. Mario is an almost perfect franchise that gets a lot of things right and Sonic is a flawed franchise that gets a lot of things wrong, even Sonic fans have to admit this. But if they don't like the Mario games but love the Sonic games, they won't understand how an italian plumber that eats mushrooms and kills turtles can be more sucessful than a cool anthropomorhic hedgehog that easily runs at the speed of sound and most time saves way more than just his girlfriend.
