Nintendo NX is expected to be playable during the EGX 2016 in September.

Due to a recent survey conducted, Nintendo NX was rumored to be appearing at the EGX 2016. Other reports even suggest the console may be playable during the event. Despite the potential good news, there have also been reports that the console's release date will be released later than anticipated.

The survey which sparked rumors that the upcoming console will be playable at EGX was conducted by the event organizers themselves. One of the questions asked is that if people are already anticipating in playing a new console. For those who are interested in participating, readers can access the survey here.

The 26-question survey asks basic questions to responders like, who they will be attending with during the event, element that would make the event great, favorite YouTube/streaming personalities they would like to see perform, and other questions which may help improve the event. The question for the Nintendo NX came at question number 7 where it asked the responder's most anticipated platform to play during EGX. A couple of consoles like PS4, Xbox One, Microsoft Hololens and Nintendo 3DS were included in the list of choices, Attack of the Fan Boy reported.

Aside from question number 7, other questions related to Nintendo NX have not been brought up in the survey. Last April, Nintendo confirmed the console will be available across all regions come March 2017 alongside the confirmation that the Zelda series will also be released simultaneously with NX and Nintedo Wii U, WCCF Tech reported.

The same report brought up the possibility that NX may be launched later than the announced release date due to delay in production. It has been reported that Nintendo plans to incorporate a Virtual Reality function into the console's system. As of the moment, the Japanese-company has not given any comment regarding this rumor.

More details are expected to be revealed as March 2017 approaches. For the mean time, fans can only hope the rumor that Nintendo NX will be playable at EGX would be true. The EGX 2016 is set to happen on Sept. 22 to 25.
