Nintendo knows that the majority of it's fans that would buy this sleep alone

 

[Tanus777]

100 dollars for an alarm clock. Lol.
I still use one than I bought for 7 dollars like 20 years ago.

 

[mcjmetroid]

Feels like an April fools

 

[XXL]

Nintendo gonna sue all the alarm clock companies in the world now.

Nintendo is going to sue everyone who sleeps at night and wakes up in the morning.

Nintendo’s response to the PS5 Pro

 

[Chuck Berry]

Instead of Switch 2 we're getting Alarmo

[sigmaZ]

I want to buy it, but I'm afraid my wife will serve me with divorce papers the next day.

 

[XXL]

Instead of Switch 2 we're getting Alarmo

This is the Switch 2.

 

[Chuck Berry]

This is the Switch 2.

The Alarmo Entertainment System

 

[Hrk69]

This is the Switch 2.

 

[Robb]

Nintendo gonna sue all the alarm clock companies in the world now.

 

[darrylgorn]

Will it still go off if my ROM is legit?

 

[Sunkrest]

Quick, buy it while its available! Just like Super Mario 3d All-Stars!

 

[Azelover]

So this is what Nintendo was mass producing..

I guess we're gonna have to wait longer for Switch 2..

 

[Shaki12345]

It's cool, but the timing is horrible.

We want teasing for the Switch 2. We're fed up.

That's a you problem obviously. There are lots of games to keep you busy till Switch 2.

It'll come at some point. The more you're waiting for it, the worse the waiting will be.

 

[GymWolf]

Still a better idea than labo.

 

[Exede]

I seriously think, they're just trolling us now... Like really

 

[Majukun]

given the limited avaiability, they probably just wanna see if there's actual interest for something similiar

still, way overpriced

 

[Dacvak]

This is so freaking stupid.

I’m probably gonna buy one.

 

[RPCGamer]

Nintendo are trying to turn us woke.

 

[Jaybe]

Not just for waking up…
Oral sex = Yoshi tongue sound
Squirting = Squid ink sound
Orgasm = Mario fanfare

 

[ResilientBanana]

Look I get the morals with kids and mobile phones, but in the real world loads of kids have mobile phones and spend their lives on them.
I'm just glad I had my childhood in the 80's

When it comes to alarm clocks Ect I just use Alexa now and have the Alexa in almost every room

I don't disagree, but something tells me this is not only a product, but a great collectors item. So there are plenty of Nintendo fans that will own this alarm clock. Take into consideration there is most likely an app with it to change themes and such.

 

[bender]

I told you guys that Nintendo loves us.

It's all done with Wi-fi. At least the time should always be correct and no worries about DST. I think it would be too much to assume that every kid has a phone. Still, it has sleep tracking, and motion detection. Not quite the cheapo item it appears to be.
I could have sworn I saw bluetooth when it was scrolling through the menus, but I guess not. I would imagine Nintendo probably does not want someone associating Norwegian Death Metal with the characters and putting it on YouTube. LOL!!

 

[lame gag1990]

More dogshit that will sell like hot cakes. The strategy no doubt, sell in limited quantities, sell out and idiots think they need this shit so they buy when back in stock. Rinse, repeat.

 

[ultrazilla]

What kind of graphics can this thing push?

 

[bundylove]

Wow.

Nintendo inovation again ladies and gentleman.

Dont have money for a 700 pro console but hey here is a clock for 100 bucks thats 10 on temu or 30 on amazon.

Whats next.

 

[ReBurn]

I think this would make a great gift for a Nintendo fan. It's not a practical one but it looks fun.

A great gift for clock fans too.

 

[jufonuk]

 

[kubricks]

Oh is this a product of the Nintendo QOL initiative which was announced on 2014? It's been 10 years they have finally managed their first product! It's a CLOCK!!!

For real did I miss anything?

 

[Sorcerer]

I think this would make a great gift for a Nintendo fan. It's not a practical one but it looks fun.

I think we all need to remember that this is not for us. Although it was strange that the ad showed teens and not little kids. Remember Nintendo was a toy company before they were a video game company.

I know a grown adult that would go nuts for this. I was thinking of getting it for her as a Christmas gift.

 

[Nostalgic Nightmare]

"It finally happened, the woman of my dreams finally said yes to a date. I took all of my games and gaming memorabilia off the shelves and replaced them with books, not a shred of whimsical Nintendo regalia to be found.
After an amazing dinner she came over for a nightcap, inside my heart was leaping and my hormones were boiling up just hoping for what would happen next. I took her to the bedroom where we could continue what would no doubt be an amazing crescendo to the concert of the evening - as we undressed her body was more amazing than I could have hoped for. As we slid into bed I couldn't have been more mentally and physically aligned when out of nowhere my Alarmo decided to pop off (10PM time for my blood pressure pills) with the SMB Game Over music. As the light from the Alarmo flashed across my B cup man breasts I saw the utter horror creep in on her face as she recoiled from the bed"

"It's still $250 hun she stammered - but there is no way in hell I'm staying here with your creep ass"

At least I still have my princess peach body pillow.

 

[Rambone]

This is kind of cool. I don't need anything like this but I sure do want it. I guess I am in for one.

Nintendo should come up with a bidet that plays Nintendo tunes while it hoses your mud hole down and gets you squeaky clean. It should also make familiar Nintendo related noises or chimes as it detects farts/poots or turds splashing.

There is a lot to like if you are a Nintendo Fan. We are just grumps on here, I guess. (Myself included). At the end of day, it's a Nintendo themed clock with some neat functionality.
Sure, it has Nintendo tax, but every company who can get away with that does it nowadays.

 

[Sorcerer]

edit

 

[Deerock71]

I somehow think Japan is their target audience for this.

 

[PuppetMaster]

This could have been a April Fools joke. Good one Nintendo

 

[Alebrije]

No Pikmin sound no buy

 

[Sorcerer]

No Pikmin sound no buy

It has a Pikmin theme actually. Are you ponying up? JK

 

[Dick Jones]

The only thing I accepted without question is the purchaser of this clock sleeps alone. The rest would have been better to release on 1st April.

Also misread the name of it as the Alamo.

Levesque! Hickenbottom! High Noon!
See you at the ALAMO!

 

[Soodanim]

Any Nintendo alarm without this track is an instant failure. Using the modern stuff just makes it worse.

 

[Bloobs]

Why do these dumbasses sleep with the curtains open

 

[Sorcerer]

Any Nintendo alarm without this track is an instant failure. Using the modern stuff just makes it worse.

If the clock is skued to really young children, the theme would probably be lost on them anyway. They may know the modern stuff though.

 

[SweetTooth]

$100 for this sh*t? Sony was grilled for selling Portal for $199 ( Apologies for comparing an actual high end product to this toy)

But Nintendo can do no wrong to some.

 

[kingwingin]

Looks cheap that you can see the square screen. Should have been a round

 

[DonF]

bruh new nintendo hardware was announced!

 

[SweetTooth]

Wow.

Haven't you heard, Nintendo invented everything!!
