If you woke up today with your Alarmo’s screen flashing at you, good news: a new Mario alarm is available, this time in distinct 8-bit goodness.
The new alarm comes as part of the wider Mario Day celebrations, but what’s particularly interesting here is that it all but confirms Alarmo will be getting new alarms (for those hesitant of a buy, this was a concern!).
The new alarm celebrates with the iconic fireworks from Super Mario Bros. once you persuade yourself up and, while in bed, features the coins, jumping sounds and more from the game. Presumably, it’s to remind you of the coins you might lose if you sleep in…
In the future, could we see new alarms for other special days? Or to mark releases of new games on Switch 2, perhaps? It seems highly likely. The differentiated marketing potential is huge, after all.
The only other alarm we know of, for now, at least, is the Animal Crossing edition mentioned at launch.
After that, can we get a Xenoblade X or Star Fox variant? Please and thanks.
