Pink Gold Peeps Feed

Pink Gold Peeps Feed is a Nintendo conversation between Mike and Matt, who introduce themselves as two twenty-somethings and talk like friends comparing notes. It moves fast. Before any news there is a check-in on the week: 6 a.m. work alarms, a rainy graduation, and one recording made hours after a trip to a water park where only a sliver of the park was running. Those asides feed the teasing. When Mike reports that a lamp at his work got changed, Matt claims to be the janitor there, and the bit ends with 'it all makes sense.' Personal fun facts turn up too, including a warning to check how much of a water park is actually open before you go. The Nintendo talk that follows is shaped more like an argument than a rundown. Pokemon is a frequent flashpoint. The complaints run from Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon global missions missed because of an awkward sign-up, to a Pokemon account kept separate from a My Nintendo account, to the rule that Mew from Pokemon Go cannot be moved into Let's Go. One of them calls that Mew decision more or less corporate bullying. Another stretch suggests a Switch Pokemon game on an existing engine, with no new Pokemon and just a huge overworld, and both say they would buy it. Details get fixed on the fly, as when Sun and Moon turns into X and Y and then ORAS within one sentence. E3 season is plainly a high point, and one of them calls the run-up his favorite time. The pair follow the public Smash demo down to its 45-minute blocks, and one episode is recorded between a Pokemon Direct and the start of E3 proper. DLC is a running thread. They like an expansion that gives Donkey Kong and Cranky Kong a separate area with its own weapons instead of locking it behind the main game, and they wonder aloud whether Cranky can pogo. Kingdom Hearts 3 gets the opposite treatment: they compose a tweet on air and repeat it for effect, asking for no DLC at all, with bonus points for tagging Tetsuya Nomura. Release news slips in between, like Valkyria Chronicles 4 arriving September 25th in a September one of them remembers calling dry, and a crack that The Walking Dead has been ported nearly as often as Skyrim. Titles like 'Pink Gold Peeps #54 - Let's Play E3 Bingo!' and 'Pink Gold Peeps #4- Smash To A New Beat' show where attention tends to sit. Some closings put a question to Twitter, such as whether Mario Odyssey is more likely to get kingdom-based DLC or a sequel. What comes through is two people forming opinions out loud, changing angle and protesting when someone suggests wrapping up. Each of these episodes signs off the same way, with a quick 'Ciao.'
