Charles Martinet wants to “maintain the integrity” of Mario, won’t improvise non-Mario phrases / dialogue

Charles Martinet isn’t the voice of Mario anymore, but he’s still very important to Nintendo. After he retired from the role, Martinet was named an ambassador of the character. You can continue to see him at various conventions where he’ll act as Mario, and his goal is ultimately to “maintain the integrity” of the character.
