Nothing will ever kill Mario in sales.

Quality, well... That's another thing.

What are you implying..

That nothing will beat Mario in sales, but Mario has been and can be beaten in quality...

you should give an example!!!

Back last gen, Mario Sunshine's and Luigi's Mansion's gameplay wasn't up to par with SONY's Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper, and Jak & Daxter series.  Currently, it's easy to argue that Little Big Planet and the current gen Ratchet & Clank games are on par with Super Mario Bro's Wii and Mario Galaxy if not better.  You also have Braid via Xbox Live Marketplace and the PSN.  I love platforming, and Mario will always be a staple.  You're pretty much guaranteed quality when it comes to a Mario platformer.  But that doesn't mean that a Mario platformer will be the best option in gameplay.
