Nintendo’s Alarmo Becomes Best-Selling Wall Clock on Amazon Japan 4i195y
Nintendo has unexpectedly claimed the top spot in Amazon Japan’s **wall clock** category, thanks to the rising popularity of the **Nintendo Sound Clock Alarmo**. Despite being designed as a bedside alarm clock, the device has soared to the number one position among wall clocks as of April 21. 51241d
Originally released as a limited item for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, Alarmo’s demand quickly outpaced supply, delaying its general release in Japan. Now available on Amazon, the quirky clock continues to fly off shelves, even outselling traditional wall clocks—despite not being designed to hang on walls.
The Alarmo features nostalgic sound effects from Nintendo games, and regular updates have added new songs and sounds, keeping it fresh for fans. While it hasn’t made a major splash on Amazon US, it remains sold out, with only marked-up listings from resellers.
Though initially met with mixed reactions—especially from fans hoping for news about the Nintendo Switch 2—the Alarmo has become a surprise hit, showing once again how Nintendo’s creativity can capture attention far beyond gaming.
