Hardcore fans will buy it regardless of its art style. But mainstream gamers prefer "serious" graphics to cartoon graphics, as you have already admitted and as the weekly sales charts prove. Appealing only to a fanbase that can support 4-5 million sales is foolish when you can reach wider and sell better.
Your problem is that you are only thinking of what you want, rather than what the market wants, which is Nintendo's problem also.

Unfortunately, as long as Aonuma is in charge, the problem will exist. He knows about the art style, he changed TWW2 for Twilight Princess because people asked for that art style, he already knew at that time which one will sell better. Yet, even knowing all of this, he keeps obssesed with his cartoons Zeldas.

Well, he's getting old, hopefully he will either retire or take a step back to a less active role soon, and hand over the reins to someone less stubborn.

I think he is capable of developing a non-cartoon Zelda, maybe someone above just needs to give the order. Kimishima looks like the kind of person.
