I'd say 3 is the biggest factor. I'd question 5 though. Are traditional games on PS4 doing worse?  Doesn't seem that way to me. I feel like games are generally selling more.

I don't know, their games don't seem to have any legs whatsoever while Nintendo games are chart toppers for years.

TLOU2 has fell out of Top 10 charts in many countries while MK8, Animal Crossing, BotW, etc are still in Top 10 charts months/years after their release.

GoT seems to be doing well so that is a good thing for them.  I honestly don't think a vast majority of PS4 owners care about the Exclusives at all.  This always open the door for a company with refreshing and good games to eat into their market share (see Xbox 360/Wii era).  If Microsoft would have had a better announcement of the Xbox One I think we would be looking at a much different gaming landscape (forced Kinect, Always Online, game locking, etc).

As for why Nintendo games are selling so well, good games have good legs is the easiest way I would sum it up.
