Except last generation where New Super Mario Bros sold over 10 million more than the best selling Pokemon game.

I didn't know that happened. If true, then I guess it's Mario by a country mile. 

Yep, New Super Mario Bros DS & Wii each sold about 30 million compared to 17 million for Diamond/Pearl.
