I think most people, including me and most in the industry, really wishes Nintendo would stop being Nintendo and actually succeed.
What does this mean though?
Stop being Nintendo? So they should become generic console #3?
Or do you just mean stop some of the dumb decisions, but keep the kind of cooky out there focus? Does it mean the "Gritty Open World Zelda" from the other thread? Does that mean simply building an evenly powered console?
I mean, I think people want Nintendo to succeed, but I would rather they not give up their wacky way while doing it. I still don't think a similarly powered console is the end-all be all, unless they find a unique way to do it (Rumored Overclocking Dock is the right direction).

This. Their decisions with marketing and how their console functions (phone app for chat and the 16 digit code in mario maker, for examples). I love quirky, but it needs to make sense.

This argument is so frustrating because it only makes you (not you, specifically) seem like you don't realize how many stupid decisions Nintendo makes. Just because they adapt to the market and start meeting the expectations of video games today, doesn't mean it is a copy of their competition.
As far as "Gritty Open World Zelda", I wouldn't ask for that ever, but the market has clearly dictated that open world games are in very high demand. I would think asking for a skilled and lauded developer like Nintendo to make one is hardly a stretch.
