Leave it to Nintendo to keep us on our toes! While the world eagerly awaits news on the Switch 2, Nintendo swoops in with… drumroll… Alarmo, a $100 alarm clock that’s ready to make your mornings as chaotic as a Mario Kart blue shell.
Alarmo isn’t just any alarm clock—it’s an “experience.” Picture this: you’re sleeping soundly, dreaming of conquering Breath of the Wild, when suddenly you’re jolted awake by immersive sounds from your favorite Nintendo games. But don’t worry, you can lazily wave your hand to quiet it down—because who doesn’t want to feel like they’re using the Force to snooze?
Of course, if you keep hitting snooze, you’ll get a special visit from Nintendo’s most persuasive motivational speaker: Bowser. That’s right, keep ignoring your alarm, and you’ll have Bowser breathing down your neck to drag you out of bed like it’s another princess-kidnapping mission.
Want even more customization? Pick from characters across Super Mario Odyssey, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Ring Fit Adventure, and more. Alarmo will even celebrate your victory when you finally manage to roll out of bed! And just in case you want more fun ways to torment yourself, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Animal Crossing options are coming post-launch. Yay?
Alarmo hits the My Nintendo Store first, with a retail release in 2025, ready to either get you up—or make you wish you could just go back to sleep forever. Check out the video—it looks annoying as hell.
