Well just to add a bit more fuel to this before I reply. For those, who don't think Mario is as popular as he was before.

In the year 2001, Mario had 2 games in the Top 20 best selling games of the year. He releases to my knowledge 3 real games not counting the spin-offs like Dr.Mario and Mario Party 3.

Super Mario Advance which was a part of like a 13 year old game become the 5th best selling game of the year. So you have to wonder how much higher he would have placed if it was a brand new game.
