Any percentage chance that anyone gives would be extremely subjective. However, I think your chances are pretty good based on an quick review.

You have a good chance for EB1-EA. If I were you I would apply for EB1-EA.

I would go for EA. For NIW the stars often have to be aligned in the right way. In EA you have clear criteria but in NIW they are much less definied
