Nintendo isn’t the only company not attending Gamescom 2012. SEGA will be a no-show, too.

Mike Roush wrote the following to close out his update:

“Wii have a few fun little updates coming for U, so keep your EYES out!!!”

Gaijin Games has hinted at a Wii U version of Bit.Trip Runner 2 many times before. The company may finally be able to announce something for the console during E3, which will take place in less than a month.
