It's a little bit funny (or sad), when a 30 years old brand, like Zelda has to fight with a totally new and unkown IP, like Horizon.

You said, PS4 has a higher installed base, but Zelda has not ANY competitor because for Switch there isn't any other professional game. Zelda is the only chice for Swith. While Horizon has dozens or hundreds of competitors from exclusive games to multiplatforms.

Not sad at all, shows how the right marketing and PR can sell a product. Same with Destiny, the right amount of PR and marketing along with good will from Halo made that the biggest New IP ever. 

Amazing reviews and word of mouth also are reasons why Horizon is selling so well.
