Toem nintendo1/16/2024 ![]() We also hope for more storage and seamless Bluetooth connectivity to connect wireless headphones to a next-gen Switch out of the box, rather than wait for the connectivity to be enabled years later, as was the case with the current Switch.įurthermore, Nintendo recently patented a unique health-tracking device, which would be able to track your sleep, monitor your mood via microphones and sensors, and even change the odor of a room. The Switch OLED came with an Ethernet port, but we'd hope for more ports on the Switch 2. ![]() Alternatively a next-gen Switch could have the power for a full 4K output. Called Nvidia Deep Learning Super Sampling, or DLSS, this uses AI tech to effectively upmix graphics into high-resolution images without the performance demands of rendering them at, say, a native 4K. According to Bloomberg, a new Switch will use an advanced upscaling technique to achieve 4K resolution. We might also see a resolution bump as well. ![]() We can hope after the OLED display we get to see a 4K display on the Switch 2. While we did get the Nintendo Switch OLED last year, that didn't go far enough in making changes to what we already had in the base Switch it's the Switch model to get if you've yet to get one, but arguably not worth an upgrade from the standard Switch. Earlier this year, Nintendo did hint that a “next gen device” is on the way, which may be backwards compatible with the Switch’s existing library. But no solid information followed this up. The rumors around the Nintendo Switch 2 have been slow so far. 17 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Windows PC via Steam.(Image credit: Katarzyna Penar at Lightframes) Like in A Short Hike, getting to the top of Toem’s mountain as fast as possible is not the point, because the sheer joy of these worlds is built to be savored. It feels similar in this way to Adam Robinson-Yu’s A Short Hike, the indie breakout from 2019, despite the two games being nothing alike mechanically and visually. There’s just enough in Toem that I want to (and actually can) uncover all the secrets. ![]() It’s the sort of game that I want more of, but I’m thankful the developers stopped when they did: Every new discovery and world feels fresh and fulfilling, and not a single moment felt overwrought. The game itself is small, just over three hours to complete, but manages to pack so many sweet moments into its concise world. The simple mechanics of stopping to snap a photo - sometimes with light puzzles that include a tripod or horn to surprise subjects - work so perfectly with the goofy charm of Toem’s towns. Mostly, helping means taking photos, but it sometimes means whimsical and silly tasks, like taking a ghost on a date. Bus trips to each of Toem’s locations require a bunch of stamps on the bus pass, each of which can be earned by helping out locals. The camera is essential not only in capturing that trip, but actually traveling through the different cities and towns, too. When Toem begins, you’re given a camera with some basic functions, letting you zoom and take selfies, and you set out on a journey to the top of a mountain to photograph something called the toem. It perfectly uses the snap of a camera shutter to evoke a cozy, lived-in world. Toem is the next iteration of the photography game. Before Toem, Umurangi Generation used photography to tell a story of a decaying world Alba: A Wildlife Adventure used the practice in its feel-good story about saving and appreciating natural environments and, of course, there’s New Pokémon Snap, a game using photographs to test your perfect timing. It’s part of a growing number of photography games that use the act of capturing photos - and noticing environments around the player - as the main function of the game. In Toem, developer Something We Made’s game is built around the idea of a photography mode. There’s no real standard for photo modes: Most come with zoom and camera movement, but no two are the same, allowing players to take a breath to capture something with a shutter click. Many big-budget video games come with a dedicated photo mode these days - a tool designed specifically for capturing a game within a single frame.

New das boot series1/16/2024 ![]() Need any more details?” She doesn‘t. Another thing that Simone doesn’t realize is that Frank is head over heels in love and intent on winning over resistance fighter Carla Monroe (Lizzy Caplan). When during a tour she seeks to romanticize the “floating coffin” by describing it as a cozy man-cave and wants to know “what life’s like” on board, he replies without mincing his words: “40 guys, no shower, a shithole. Frank is visibly annoyed by his sister’s ignorance. When she finds herself bound for La Rochelle, the translator is looking forward most of all to being reunited with her brother Frank (Leonard Scheicher), a submarine radio operator who is stationed in this French coastal town. ![]() Simone Strasser from Alsace (played by Krieps) appears blissfully unaware of any of this, however. Nine months after the sinking of the U-96 – the submarine we remember from the cinema version – the Brits are using the Enigma encryption machine to make life hell for Germany’s Nazi regime and have already sunk twelve subs in short order.

Top two conference records compete for conference championship at the team with the superior record’s home stadium on Friday, Dec. ![]() New Mexico State Aggies (from Independent). ![]() 5, 2021) to round out the 9-team assembly. Two independents - located over 1,800 miles apart - were granted membership in the revamped league and two FCS programs received the call-up (a move which was ratified Nov. With only five remnants, CUSA expansion became mandatory. ![]() But even last year’s iteration of the conference looks unrecognizable now, as the league lost six of its 11 teams from 2022. For the 2022 season, the league lost Marshall, Old Dominion, and Southern Miss to the Sun Belt after the initial schedule release - causing revisions to be made later in the offseason. The CUSA (formerly known as the C-USA, before the conference eradicated the hyphen in June) has altered its appearance more than any other conference in the past two seasons. No automatic New Year’s Six bowl bid - one automatic bid shared between AAC, CUSA, MAC, Mountain West, Sun Belt.Top two conference records compete for conference championship at the team with the superior record’s home stadium on Saturday, Dec.14 teams (tied with ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, SEC for largest FBS conference).No further renovations will be made in 2024, and this league is expected to stay pat at 14 for the foreseeable future - until stated otherwise. For a decade and counting, the AAC has been somewhat of a feeder league for the top CUSA teams, as all members except for Navy and Temple formerly held CUSA status. Now with three of the conference’s premier football programs headed to Big 12 pastures, the AAC concocted a near 50-50 mixture combining eight incumbent members and six CUSA teams in major markets - which were officially added Oct. The AAC which formerly consisted of 12 institutions subtracted UConn after the 2019 season, reducing the number of teams in the conference to 11. Top two conference records compete for conference championship at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX on Saturday, Dec.14 teams (tied with AAC, ACC, Big Ten, SEC for largest FBS conference).None - Oklahoma and Texas depart for the SEC on July 1, 2024.10, 2021 - roughly 22 months prior to the initiation date. The Big 12’s decision to add those four programs was officially stamped on Sept. Rather than operate with a downsized 10-member league, the Big 12 opted for expansion and added three of the AAC’s most successful programs and BYU, which held independent status from 2011-22. Both programs remain a fixture of the league’s 2023 landscape, but they’ll transition to the SEC in 2024 in a move which was announced as early as July 2021. The first domino of this new wave of conference realignment all started with two teams departing from the Big 12 - Oklahoma and Texas. Below is a clarification of every move happening to kick off the month of July 2023. The ever-evolving hodgepodge that is the college football conference landscaping can be confusing with all the simultaneous changes. Those call-ups and the rest of the realignment moves can all be traced to the trickle-down effect created by the SEC adding Oklahoma and Texas - a move which doesn’t officially transpire until July 1, 2024. The FBS expands from 131 to 133 teams this season as two FCS programs received CUSA call-ups. Jis quite a consequential day for the sport of college football.Īn astounding 14 teams relocate to new conferences in a single flip of the calendar - making it the busiest moving day of 21st century conference realignment.
