The NX was not the only console he talked about, however- he also noted that Damien Thong, the lone analyst who correctly predicted the existence of the PS4 Pro and the PS4 Slim, was also predicting that the PS5, as in the successor to the PlayStation 4, will be arriving in the second half of 2018.
That would… honestly be a bit too soon for my liking. The PS4 Pro just launched, after all, and in 2018, the PS4 itself would only be five years old. I think Sony would do well to hold off on introducing a PS5 for a good while.
To clarify: Analysts expect NX unveiling by TGS next week, and if it would't be the case, there should be some updates by early October.
