Nintendo Alarmo Now Available At Major Retailers - Mario Will Wake You Up For $100

Wait 5 sec.

Nintendo Alarmo is now available to purchase for $100 at Best Buy. The Nintendo-themed interactive alarm clock first released in October at the Nintendo Store, but you needed a Switch Online membership to buy it. At that time, Nintendo said Alarmo would launch at major retailers in March 2025. The quirky accessory has arrived a bit earlier than expected.Alarmo is currently only available at Best Buy (and the Nintendo Store). That said, we'd expect the gamified alarm clock to pop up at other major retailers soon, including Walmart, Target, and GameStop. It's possible Amazon will sell it, too. While the online retail giant doesn't carry Nintendo Switch products at this time, it still stocks a wide variety of official Nintendo merch. Alarmo has several cool interactive features, too. The built-in motion sensor lets you snooze your alarm with a gesture or a button press (it's your choice). Nintendo characters from the games above can also respond to motion-detected gestures.Throughout the day, Alarmo can be used to remind you what time it is by setting it to play music at specific intervals. It can also track your sleep and let you know how often you're tossing and turning, which provides a general idea of the quality of your sleep.Alarmo is powered with the included USB-C cable. While it doesn't work wirelessly, the included coin battery saves your settings, so if you need to move the clock to another room or your power goes out, you can plug it back in without needing to set it up again.Nintendo plans to release more updates, including new scenes, for Alarmo in the future. Updates are free, but you need to connect the device to Wi-Fi to download them.In the world of very unofficial updates, it's technically possible to play Doom on Nintendo Alarmo.
