In a surprising turn of events, Nintendo has announced the release of its latest hardware, an interactive alarm clock called Alarmo. Marketed as the Nintendo Sound Clock, Alarmo allows fans to wake up to familiar sounds from beloved franchises like Zelda and Super Mario. The device has garnered attention for its unique features, including the ability to play Mario coin noises and increase in volume if users don't get out of bed. Priced at $99.99, some critics have questioned the necessity and value of the new gadget, suggesting it might be overpriced and unnecessary. Nevertheless, Nintendo aims to make waking up more entertaining and interactive with this quirky new product, diverting attention from the much-anticipated Switch 2.
