Gamers and non-gamers alike have something new to look forward to from Nintendo – a smart alarm clock called Alarmo. This physical alarm clock not only wakes you up with Nintendo music but also gamifies the process of getting out of bed. With sensors that detect your movements, Alarmo responds with sound effects from popular Nintendo games.
The unique feature of Alarmo is its ability to celebrate your success in getting out of bed with a small fanfare. However, if you choose to stay in bed, the alarm gradually becomes louder and more aggressive to ensure you wake up. The alarm clock comes with built-in alarms inspired by Nintendo’s popular games like Super Mario Odyssey, Pikmin 4, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
In addition to waking you up, Alarmo can also help you fall asleep by playing soothing sleep sounds. It can even record your sleep data and play a chime at the top of every hour during the day. More alarms based on Nintendo games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Animal Crossing: New Horizons are expected to be added through online updates.
Alarmo is set to launch in the US and Canada for $99.99, with plans for releases in other markets in early 2025. This innovative smart alarm clock from Nintendo is sure to appeal to fans of the gaming company and those looking for a fun and interactive way to start their day.
