I still find this quite weird.

Having an alarm clock that connects to the internet certainly isn’t something that I thought we needed.

It surprises me that Nintendo would think enough people would pay for this, but considering the tech in it, I doubt it could sell for cheaper at a profit. What people don’t realize is that there is a full on radar based health monitoring system in there that drives the price up. I expect this is a test bed for a future product that someone is trying to make back the R&D money.

I would buy it, if it where available in Europe.

Impressive. They actually managed to make a product that makes AAA Clock on the Switch eShop look like a good deal.

Seriously though, cut the price in half and I’d MAYBE consider this as something of a Nintendo related novelty/“luxury” if I had the cash to burn. You can’t ever convince me (or most people) to pay $100 for a friggin’ alarm clock though.

Online required is hilarious to see on a clock.

does spending $100 on an alarm clock count as a literal interpretation of “go woke go broke”
