PS4K and Nintendo NX to be unveiled in September according to some reports

[TroyTheAverage]

Although I have never been a big fan of Nintendo, I'm getting interested in what they have in store for the NX.

The Tokyo Game Show could be the venue for unveiling both Sony’s updated PS4.5 and Nintendo’s new console, if rumours are true.

A decade or so ago the Tokyo Game Show was a vitally important trade event, but more recently it’s become little more than a side show. But that could be about to change if a report by website VR World is correct.

Although the article is primarily concerned with the innards of the PlayStation Neo (variously nicknamed the PS4.5 and PS4K, although nobody knows what it’s really called) it plainly states that the new version of the PlayStation 4 will ‘make its debut’ at the Tokyo Game Show.

The show starts on September 15, and according to VR World the Nintendo NX (also just a codename) will also ‘be announced during Tokyo Game Show 2016’.


We can’t wait till we can stop using these fan mock-ups of the NX
The oddly blasé way in which the article imparts this information almost implies that the author thought it was common knowledge. Which it certainly isn’t.

The NX was never expected at E3 next month, since it’s not out till next spring, but some rumours also suggest the new PlayStation 4 won’t be out until then either. In which case the Tokyo Game Show begins to make more sense.

There’s no mention of Microsoft, who despite being the first ones to raise the prospect of an ‘upgrade console’ have so far managed to keep their plans secret. But it’s certainly not impossible that they may be planning a reveal at E3.

If the new PlayStation includes 4K output, it should be named PS4K. It's the perfect play on the name it has already and immediately tells the prospective buyers why it's different. I'll double down for the 4K output alone. I just bought a curved 4K TV and this would be a killer way to fully utilize it. Plus, this will save me from buying the $400 UHD Blu-ray player that Samsung just released.

Fuck. I just bought a 3DS a few weeks ago and they are coming out with a new console.

You have about a year before the new console is released.
