What Nintendo games do you want them to change up the current formula for their next big title?

No, I said want I want - to be more like original Zelda. BotW is not like original Zelda since it's lacking one of (pun intended) "key" pillars of original Zelda design - which is gate and key (either literal, or metaphorical), hence not having gated open world, in addition to having terrible dungeons.

Later Zeldas became more and more linear - BotW overcompensated and become too open world. I find that balance where both open world and "dungeon first" design principle works best is in original Zelda formula.

Except BoTW does what Zelda NES does. Non linear and approach anything from any angle you want in any order you want. Not to mention the secrets of discovery by exploration.

Maybe you need to refresh your memory on NES Zelda (I sure won't do it here) - there is gating in NES Zelda, unlike BotW. Yes, BotW is attempt at recreating NES Zelda, no, I don't think it's quite successful one due to lack of mentioned gating and terrible BotW dungeons.
