Should Nintendo Focus On More Popular Genres?

Zelda is supposed to be a medieval fantasy open world game. The problem is Aonuma's idea of Zelda, not the franchise. They don't need a new IP, they need to get rid of Aonuma and you have there what it should be.

What's wrong with Aonuma? He directed all the modern Zelda games.

He's not only one to blame of course, but he turned what used to be open-world exploration/sword fighting game into puzzle solving adventure, because he sucked at original Zelda and he likes puzzles.

I always have this idea that he must've really liked original Tomb Raiders, since when I enter Aonuma's temples I feel like playing old Lara Croft games, with less platforming.

Now, don't get me wrong, I like puzzles, FP puzzle solving adventures are one of my most cherished genres, I like when RPGs have them too, and I even, reasonably, like his Zeldas, but he transformed Zelda way too much from what it was to his own liking - maybe Zelda U will be more balanced in that regard, but I too think that Nintendo needs someone new for Zelda.
