Wake Up Like Mario: Universal Studios Japan Hotels Rent Out Nintendo Alarmo Clocks

Nintendo fans visiting Universal Studios Japan (USJ) can now enhance their hotel stay with a unique offering: the Nintendo Alarmo clock. As part of a new partnership, guests staying at USJ’s official hotels can rent the interactive alarm clock, making their wake-up experience a little more fun.

The Nintendo Alarmo isn’t just any clock—it plays wake-up sounds and music from classic Nintendo games like Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It also features 35 different wake-up scenes, motion-sensing capabilities, and sleep tracking. Users can select from various alarm settings, including Steady Mode, Gentle Mode, and Button Mode, to customize how they start their day.

While the Alarmo is available for purchase for $99.99, the hotel rental service allows guests to test it out during their stay before committing to buying one. The device is currently available for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, with a wider retail release expected in early 2025.

This initiative is part of Nintendo’s broader efforts to integrate gaming into everyday life. By allowing fans to interact with Nintendo products in unique settings, the company continues to strengthen its brand beyond just consoles and games. Whether you’re a casual fan or a dedicated collector, waking up to the sounds of the Mushroom Kingdom might just be the best way to start your day.
