I don't think so. On PC video cards with 8 GB can already be a limiting factor at full HD. Those new consoles will want to push 4K textures and we're talking about shared memory here. So I think 24 GB is the minimum for a console to be somewhat relevant in the next 6 years or so. 32 GB would be better. Anything below that will be a serious bottleneck in the future. Not today and not tomorrow, but soon enough.

16 gig is more than enough for 4k even on pc. 

16 GB system memory, yes. But if we're talking about shared memory that would be something like 8 GB system memory + 8 GB VRAM. That wouldn't be enough for gaming in 4K for the next 6 years or so.
