Nintendo has delayed the general retail launch of its Alarmo alarm clock in Japan due to supply chain challenges. Further details on the postponement and the Alarmo's future are below.
Japan Launch Postponed
Nintendo Japan's website announced the postponement of the Alarmo's general release, originally scheduled for February 2025. The delay is attributed to current production and inventory limitations. The new release date is yet to be determined. At present, there's no word on whether this will affect international availability, with a global public launch currently planned for March 2025.
In the interim, Nintendo is offering a pre-order system exclusively for Japanese Nintendo Switch Online members. Pre-orders begin mid-December, with shipments expected in early February 2025. The precise pre-order start date will be announced separately.
Launched globally in October, the Alarmo is a unique interactive alarm clock featuring sounds from popular Nintendo franchises, including Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Pikmin, Splatoon, and RingFit Adventure, with more to be added via updates.
Its initial release saw unexpectedly high demand, leading Nintendo to halt online orders and implement a lottery system. The Alarmo quickly sold out in physical Nintendo stores across Japan and even the New York Nintendo store.
Check back for further updates on pre-orders and the rescheduled general release date.
