If we find ourselves adrift at sea, I'll try to always have my socials linked on my website: brittonpeele.com
Also I made this Linktree thing: linktr.ee/brittonpeele

Longshot, but if the Switch 2's new "C" button is a "Community" button, and the new Joycon can work like a mouse, and a new Mario Kart will be a showcase for the new system... It could be pretty cool to get a Mario Kart track editor in there.
Dallas is one of only three US cities to get a Switch 2 preview event in April.
Can I take credit because I once suggested to Nintendo PR that they should have a presence at the State Fair of Texas -- the same physical location as the April preview? No, but I'll say it anyway.
Nintendo announces Switch 2, and Dallas will be one of the first places to see it dallasnews.com/business/tech…
Yes, “Nintendo Switch 2” is a boring name (especially by Nintendo standards), but from a marketing point of view I have to concede that it’s probably the right one. They are understandably very wary of another “Wii U” situation.
At least it’s not “The New Nintendo Switch.”
Well, it's been fun, but the "Just throw every PR pitch at everybody who works in media and see what sticks" folks have found my new email address, apparently.
No, I would not be interested in trying your wedding dresses for an upcoming feature, thank you.
This both looks and sounds really cool, and it's from a Dallas-area studio.
Wartorn is a single-player, tactical, roguelite adventure taking place in a violent fantasy world torn apart by war!
Harness the elements to fight in fierce real-time battles while gathering and upgrading a crew of imaginative creatures.

I tend to be someone who separates art from artist, but sometimes you really like the art *and* the artist and then they let you down.
Last July, Neil Gaiman, author of The Sandman and American Gods, was accused of sexual assault. Lila Shapiro goes deep on the allegations and looks at his upbringing in Scientology and his relationship with his wife, Amanda Palmer, and what she knew. vulture.com/article/neil-gai…
Let’s get rid of Google and go back to physical books listing out websites and labeling some of them as “Certified Cool.”
More than 100 hours in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (my personal Game of the Year) and 0 hours in anything multiplayer on PS5. That does indeed sum up my 2024 year in PlayStation pretty well.
(Next two most-played games for me were Astro Bot and Metaphor.)
On Xbox, I completely forgot that I got 1000/1000 achievement points in Palworld... I also kind of forgot about Palworld. Because, IMHO, it is forgettable. I don't think I recommend it.
I missed the Shadow Labyrinth announcement live. Did everybody already make the appropriate Bomberman: Act Zero references?
Astro Bot is a totally worthy Game of the Year winner at #TheGameAwards. Phenomenally well-made.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is still my personal pick, but when you've also got amazing stuff like Belatro, Metaphor, Indiana Jones, and much more... It's been a good year for games.
I am all here for a new Onimusha but also chuckling quietly at the idea that we're getting a new Onimusha from Capcom before we get a new Dino Crisis.
I expected Indiana Jones and the Great Circle to at least be decent considering the pedigree of Machine Games. I don't think I expected it to be nearly as interesting (or as good) as it is. A stronger Game of the Year contender than I was prepared for.
Among other things my 5 year-old is apparently asking Santa for this year, he has also requested “A lawyer to make my parents do whatever I say.”
