Summary
- Nintendo's Alarmo alarm clock launches in retail stores March 2025.
- Initially limited by high Japanese demand, Alarmo is now available for pre-order there.
- Fan reaction is mixed; some prioritize Nintendo Switch 2 news and upcoming game announcements.
Nintendo's quirky alarm clock, Alarmo, is finally hitting retail shelves in March 2025. This follows its initial, website-exclusive launch which generated significant buzz.
Alarmo's surprise announcement caught many off guard, yet its popularity quickly surged. Initial purchase restrictions, limiting units per customer, proved insufficient to meet demand. In Japan, a lottery system was even implemented to manage the overwhelming interest.
Now, Nintendo confirms a wider retail release in March, without purchase limitations. While specific dates and participating retailers remain unannounced, major electronics stores like Target, Walmart, and GameStop are likely candidates. For those eager to avoid the wait, Alarmo appears currently in stock on Nintendo's website (requiring an NSO account).
Nintendo Fans React to Alarmo's Wider Availability
The announcement has generated a mixed response. Many fans expressed less enthusiasm, prioritizing news about the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 and upcoming game releases. While Alarmo is a fun novelty, its non-gaming nature leaves some dedicated fans wanting more substantial updates.
The situation in Japan highlights the initial challenges. Overwhelming demand led to a shift from a lottery system to pre-orders in December 2024. However, these pre-orders won't ship until February, with general retail sales delayed beyond February—the exact date remains undisclosed. Whether this reflects supply constraints specific to the Japanese market or a broader global allocation strategy is unclear.
