(for the record: I'm not convinced concerning your reasoning for their selling below par within the context of their own series, and I'm less convinced that you have any concrete indication of their sales expectations from within Nintendo - though I wil grant that Nintendo probably expects them to move more numbers than you do)

Yes, agreed.

It's mostly the feeling that I don't like these games (when I am a core customer with thousands of dollars sunk into solely Nintendo products) and that they are away from what the market has shown they want that lead me to this topic. I don't think the reasoning in the first post is good either.

Tell me something: how are they away from what the market demonstrably wants with Zelda?

How has the market demonstrated they do not want 3D Mario? Keep in mind that 2D Mario being bigger is a very different matter.
