I'm Not A Pikachu

Heya, everyone! I've thought about this a lot. And please read through my full post before assuming anything, because I honestly understand that Nintendo never was aimed to be 'Child Friendly'. It's just that the games that were made when Nintendo first started making games ended up being fun for the whole family. Something that has little-to-no gore or violence.
Mario had jumping on mushrooms. Zelda had swinging a sword, but little actual blood. You get the picture. It's just how it was. In my opinion, Nintendo didn't aim to be like that. It's just how the culture was.
Back then, you wouldn't even begin to imagine a game about war, like Call of Duty with recreation of the horrific events that come with war.
However, now with Zelda: Breath of the Wild, it made things much more deep. I remember seeing the screenshot of Zelda crying with Link, and immediately thinking: Oh wow. That's more emotional than Nintendo ever has got me.
So, just like with when Disney bought Star Wars and started making Rebels and other darker-side movies/TV shows, do you think Nintendo will start to add a lot more blood/gore to their games, or do you think they will keep with the comic-like explosions and sparks that come off enemies when you hit them? And more to the fact, do you feel like they SHOULD?
Have at it!
