It seems like Nintendo just revealed its mysterious device that recently crossed the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) — and it’s not the Switch 2. On Wednesday, Nintendo announced, of all things, the “Alarmo” alarm clock. But in classic Nintendo fashion, the clock has some playful tricks.
The clock responds to your movements, which you can use to snooze your alarm with motion. Its faces feature Nintendo characters from franchises like Super Mario and Zelda, and you can set the alarm to wake you up with music from those franchises. The Alarmo can also track how much you move in your sleep.
The Alarmo — officially, the “Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo” — is available to purchase in “early access” for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers and at the Nintendo NY store. We’ve actually already picked one up, and we’ve published some initial impressions and a bunch of photos.
