Nintendo Returns to Gamescom After 11-Year Hiatus

The company's marketing strategy since 2013 has reshaped how everyone gets their game news, regardless of console. Gamescom is a different show altogether, and Nintendo's exhibit at Cologne will follow the July 21 launch of Pikmin 4, so it's possible the company will have something to show then that it hasn't announced so far.
