Nintendo’s Nindies Showcase Spring 2018 – Here’s Everything They Announced Today

Ok, so there was no Oddworld: Soulstorm to be found, (as we speculated). And from what we can tell, the big tease from Oddworld Inhabitants today seems to have been over Oddworld: Abe’s Origins: a new book that, shockingly, celebrates the origins of Abe – it’s via Kickstarter. That’s pretty cool, but we’re sure there’s more news on the way for Soulstorm (it’s apparently out this year).
