Nintendo Reveals When Alarmo is Getting a Wider Release

Nintendo's Alarmo Alarm Clock: Wider Availability Announced

Nintendo's quirky Alarmo alarm clock is finally hitting retail shelves in March 2025! Initially a Nintendo website exclusive, the device's popularity led to purchase restrictions in Japan due to overwhelming demand. Pre-orders are now open in Japan, but global availability is on the horizon.

The surprise announcement of Alarmo generated significant buzz. Despite purchase limits initially implemented to manage demand, Japanese sales were further restricted via a lottery system. This high demand speaks volumes about the product's appeal.

March 2025 will mark the unrestricted retail launch of Alarmo. While specific dates and participating retailers remain unannounced, major chains like Target, Walmart, and GameStop are likely candidates. Impatient fans can currently purchase Alarmo directly from Nintendo's website (NSO account required).

Mixed Fan Reception: Awaiting Switch 2 News

While Alarmo has sparked interest, the announcement's reception has been mixed. Many fans expressed a stronger desire for news regarding the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 and upcoming game releases. Although Alarmo is a unique product, its non-gaming nature has led some to prioritize information about Nintendo's next-generation console and software lineup.

The situation in Japan highlights the device's popularity. Initially using a lottery system due to limited supply, Nintendo transitioned to standard pre-orders in December 2024. However, these pre-orders won't ship until February, with general retail sales delayed beyond that date. The reason for this delay remains unclear, potentially stemming from supply chain constraints or a strategic global distribution plan.
