Nintendo Sound Clock Alarmo" is selling so well that it will be sold by lottery. Currently, it is not available on My Nintendo Store.

Like clockwork, pun intended.

I don't need it, it's too expensive and obviously there is an app that does the same and more for my phone.

But fuck me I want the thing.

What will be interesting is if nintendo have locked it down to hacking, the fact it's updateable with new themes means there's a way in. Would mean we could end up with loads of sound themes or someone will end up running doom on it lol

People just have to care enough to figure it out, imagine if this ended up being the only Nintendo hardware ever without an exploit.

Real questions: will Nintendo ship fast enough for my clock to arrive before my date night?

Great for a kid whose big into Nintendo.

Or adults who want to regrow their virginity

I'm sure there's plenty that won't have to regrow jack-shit.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Brick breaking sound for smashing the Snooze button?

Looks like a cute idea for kids.

 

[AJUMP23]

I made my choices. I will hide it from my wife.

 

[Futaleufu]

You know manchildren will queue for hours to buy this crap

 

[Solarstrike]

No Switch II info. And with this, my PS5 Pro preorder is confirmed. /Nintendone, smh.

 

[Arcane0ne]

Sudden annoying Nintendo alarmo sounds, I proceed to throw it out the window.

Looks very cheap plastic. 19´99 euros transformed to 99´99 because Nintendo.

Wow, this is the out of season April Fool's Joke isn't it?

There was NES cereal in the 80's. Also a videogame dedicated magazine was considered edgy back in the day, but Nintendo Power was a huge success..

The Wii Balance Board with Wii Fit, which was basically a bathroom scale was a massive seller. Sold more than a lot of top selling games from its time..

 

[Mitsurux]

Huh, looked kinda neat. Showed the video to my daughter she thought it looked pretty cool. Might try to get one for her for Christmas.

 

[SmoothBrain]

100$ for e-waste, and only selection of 5 game OSTs. Now they will sue everybody, because they patented waking up.

What a plot twist.

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

Or, sometimes an alarm clock is just an alarm clock

Let me dream, man. Let me dream.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Oh this is why!

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Oh this is why!

Nice theory, but...

Alarmo received too many orders such that Nintendo had to change it to lottery sale only for Switch Online subscribers

 

[Investor9872]

I would probably ruined my walls with a few holes using that alarm day-1.

 

[M1chl]

Embarrassing

 

[ToughestSoul]

I watched the video in the OP

you've got to be fucking kidding me

People thinking they can scalp it, presumably.

 

[ItsGreat]

At this point, Nintendo should just put shit in a box and sell it for $200. They seem to always find some schmuck who'll pay for this useless tat.

A $100 alarm clock in 2024... What a fucking joke!

Take a look around.

Have you seen the prices Lego charge adults for plastic blocks?

 

[Impotaku]

Hoping that the guardian music is in there so you can get ptsd as you wake up to a beeping noise like this LOL

Toys are expensive. News at eleven.

This is not a toy. It's an alarm clock. It had far less value and utility.

 

[Saturn Dragon]

Apple, Lego, Nintendo.

 

[schaft0620]

What a cheap looking thing lol

No power brick!!!

At one time I was in my twenties at the birth of this meme. Good times.

Victor digs it.



He knows it'll have an adverse effect on his marriage so instead it has found its home on his desk in his office.

 

[Herbspiceguy]

Seems hugely popular the amongst mainstream.

I thought Nintendo start their business with producing Karuta.... which is a type of playing cards in Japan lol.

 

[Impotaku]

And here we are LOL

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Why would anyone buy this? To hear the most annoying voice imaginable which'll going to wake you up?

"Hey! It's a me, Mario! Get out of the bed a, you lazy pice of shit a!"

 

[Impotaku]

You just answered your own question lol.
