If you look at singular figures this may be true, but if you look at the overall console business, I don't believe it is. I could be wrong though.
I have no idea what you're trying to say here. No console has sold at the level of PS4 through its current lifetime. XBOX One is selling more consoles than Xbox 360 and PS3 did at the same time. Those are not signs of a struggling market.
If consoles are still selling well, the cost of making AAA games is still a very risky proposition these days. It's why the industry has become dominated with annual sequels and remakes. More and more reliance on paid DLC to help fund the game further.
No more risky than a blockbuster movie, which are also "dominated by annual sequels and remakes". Good thing more and more Indy developers are delivering first class experiences.
