Imagine that thing going wild with Mario sounds when you're having bed action.

Actually it look like it is constructed of the same red plastic that the last version of the Wii was made of, very toylike. Nintendo must have a secret stash of this plastic in a warehouse and trot it out for stuff like this occasionaly.
It'll turn out to be highly toxic and dangerous, but is 3% cheaper than other plastics so Nintendo went for it.
On topic, I've never seen that Wii before. Looks kinda cool.

I want a Shiggy one that wake me up with him saying:
Would be epic to be berated by him to get my ass up and get to work.
He's arguing for taking your time though? That statement is surely more fitting for allowing use of the snooze button.

True, but I just learnt on a podcast that Shiggy admits his employees fear working for him. He is a real hard ass. They know he will toss their work in the garbage at some point and make them start over.
Shiggy pretends to be Link, but is really Gannon in disguise, from what I gather.

I guess for your purposes "A Delayed Game is eventually good. But let's try and avoid the delay anyway. Get the fuck up."

This is a collection item… and a expensive gift.

No one buying this is getting bed action. In fact, just seeing the thing in images has already diminished our chances of getting laid.

I can't help but think that having something like this so close to your bed is going to be a repellant for anyone who's come home with you. Great if you don't want a relationship and want them to leave first thing in the morning though, I suppose.

It's the genius of novelty, no one else is doing it, so lets a make a fortune off of the concept.
I fully expect to see a Call of Duty clock to hit the market shortly. (Gamepass required)
Maybe a Black Myth Wukong clock?

You won't have to wait for the morning for them to leave.

That sounds like a good way to make a whole generation of school children hate everything Nintendo.

Kids hopefully haven't left that stage of innocence. I guess it's different when you know you are going to wake up to go and play outside and with your toys all day. Some kids remember exactly where they left off and go straight to it after waking up. But I guess that wears off when they start school.
Pleasant sounds for waking up when you don't want to hardly helps, especially when you know you are in for a crap day.

May I have a cookie?
I don't know what to make of this. It's incredibly overpriced for what it does. Is this the result of the QoL strategy initiated by Iwata all those years ago? Does it connect to other Nintendo devices or services? What's the point of the motion sensor?

You guys getting bent out of shape for nothing. You realize that Nintendo is a company that caters to everyone. Not all their products are for us. This is for kids. When I was a kid in the 80s I would of loved this. Also I am sure some adults will buy this too, (the single ones without spouses that spend all their time in games), or collectors. It's a cool idea and doesn't take away from anything.
People bitched about wii fit and ring fit too, but guess what it has a market, it just wasn't you. Thats alright. I picked up a ring fit, why as it is a cool way to work out. Helped out a ton when I needed to stretch and had muscle pain.
This thing will sell, I guarantee you parents will buy this for their kids for Christmas.

It's a toy strategically targeted for holiday sales. Stocking stuffer almost. I can guarantee once the novelty wears off it will be discontinued. Allowing them to try this again another time. Unless they plan of series of clocks. The fact that you need to have Switch Online is telling. Nintendo trying to stave off the scalpers? Or they think they know how many they need to sell and selling to customers they already have is enough?
