Nintendo not attending Gamescom 2012
Nintendo is cutting out its trip to Gamescom 2012. The company has attended the trade show on a yearly basis.
Fans are usually able to get their hands on Nintendo’s upcoming lineup at Gamescom. Without the company’s presence at the expo, Nintendo will instead set up “a number of sampling events” for Wii U, Wii, and 3DS experiences.
Nintendo commented on their status at Gamescom 2012 earlier today:
“Whilst Gamescom is a fantastic show, we have taken the decision not to attend this year’s event. We are planning a number of sampling events throughout Germany in which our fans will have the opportunity to play upcoming Nintendo 3DS, Wii and Wii U titles. Further details will be announced soon.”
