    Hey its a really expensive alarm clock. It does the things your smart device can, but by nintendo. I'm not going to argue this has a tremendous amount of value, what it has is fun.

    Ok ok I get it. Its $100 for an alarm clock. Do you need it to wake up? No. Is it really cool and makes mornings more interesting? Yes it does. Lots of different sounds to wake up to and fall asleep to. It really is a cool gadget to have. The motion stuff really works when waking up by the way. I dont regret the purchase. It would have gotten 5 stars if it was at the $50-$75 mark.

    My 8 yr old son wanted this because he loves Mario bros and pikmin. He also wanted to be more independent and get up on his own in the mornings for school. You can pre set your alarm for the week. It tracks your sleep at night and you can set it with sleepy sounds before you dose off. It is an alarm clock at the end of the day. It’s not wireless.

    My son is 7 and he loves this thing! It’s super fun to wake up to the alarms, it’s engaging for kids, and it’s such recognizable game IP that even as a parent I find it charming. Durable too, it’s fallen off his nightstand a few times onto hard wood floor and no visible damage haha. Overall, just a fun little piece of kit. Love the sleepy sounds

    Great gift for uoung Nintendo fans. Easy to operate and set up. It initially seems pricey, but considering it will last a kid a long time, it's worth it. Keep in mind, the sensor is meant for individuals, not pairs. And dont forget to link your Nintendo account for more alarms to download.

    Bought this for my kids to wake up to in the morning. Before, waking them up for school was a challenge, but they've been excited to wake up with this alarm clock. It's been a couple months now, and although they're not *as* excited as when they first got it, they still are significantly easier to wake up in the mornings, and they do still look forward to seeing the characters. I especially like how I can customize the alarms for different days, and its intensity. It would be nice if it could do something pokemon related, but for now the Mario characters still keep them interested.

    Pricey but worth the Nintendo sounds for a clock

    It's nice when you are around a decently lit environment. But the sensor for this clock is weird. The darker it gets in the room, the darker the screen gets! There's a brightness setting but it's not a static setting. You can crank the brightness to the max but the second it gets darker in your room, the clock screen gets darker. There still hasn't been a firmware update to fix this. Overall, it's a nice clock, it's the dim screen that is the only con for me.

    If youre a Nintendo fan and have issues staying awake in the morning, this is perfect. I love that it continues to barrage you with awesome sounds from whichever game you choose until Alarmo no longer senses you.

    The themes are cool and the hourly chime is a nice touch. It only let's you set one alarm with the option of choosing what days it's active. The sensor functionality loosely worked for me, even with making sure I was at the right position and height. It didn't detect when I was or wasn't in bed, but was able to detect side to side motion. Somewhat defeats the purpose of the activity based alarm if it doesn't work, along with sleep records being inaccurate. After a month I'd occasionally wake up to it having an error code, essentially making the alarm useless.

    Makes me smile everytime the hourly chime kicks in and Mario and friends drive across the screen. I found the whimsy and nostalgia to be worth the money, especially since a Nintendo online subscription is no longer required to access all of the content.

    I it kind of cool alarm clock. I like how it wakes you up. Nintendo is add alarms to it. Wish it was loader. It does track your sleep. Wish away to see the report bigger. It is easy to set up. Little price for what it is, but it kind of fun.
