Koei Tecmo president references NX in a conversation about home consoles

Coming from a 4Gamer interview with Koei Tecmo President and CEO Yoichi Erikawa...

4Gamer: On one hand, virtual reality requires special machinery to play, and we feel that the current state of “games” is headed to yet another way of playing. It’s almost as if it’s evolving towards the opposite direction of smartphones, and requires to “only play at that spot,” or something along those lines. Lately it seems that [home] consoles haven’t been doing too well, but is that the case? At least that’s what we’re wondering.

Erikawa: “Actually, I think that it’ll start doing much better. The PlayStation 4 has recently surpassed 2 million units in nationwide sales, and Nintendo announced a new ‘machine’ called the NX. From this point forward, I believe that each company will make clear commitments for these machines.”

Some people are saying that this indicates the NX is a home console. That could be true, but we don't know if there's more to it than that. We'll just have to wait until Nintendo says differently!
