Mario isn't beating anyone because despite the sales no one is playing.
And even the sales aren't that impressive when you realize the famitsu sales are an echo chamber that doesn't reflect reality. Famitsu only tracks physical sales so while it isn't a problem for Nintendo games as most tendies do not buy digital, everyone else gets like 80% or more of their total sales from digital.
And there's also the fact that Japan is inherently biased towards handhelds and Nintendo. At this point that's the only country where they dominate. Outside of Japan they don't even chart.
