Nintendo has attained the top position in an unexpected category on Amazon Japan. The Nintendo bestseller continues to perform remarkably both on and off Amazon, with demand soaring as units fly off shelves.

Nintendo consistently introduces creative ideas that spark curiosity from fans and non-gamers alike. This is evident with the recent Nintendo Sound Clock Alarmo, which took fans by surprise when first introduced. Originally exclusive to subscribers of the Nintendo Switch Online service, the Alarmo clock has gradually expanded to more markets, leading to its new achievement in Japan.

Alarmo Delights Users

Despite initial disappointment about the Alarmo causing some gamers to anticipate news about the Nintendo Switch 2 instead, it has proven to be a significant success. Nintendo had to limit orders solely to subscribers at first, and even the broader release to general customers in Japan was notably delayed due to overwhelming interest. Although designed for single sleepers without any game-related functions, the Alarmo has remained popular thanks to frequent updates adding new songs and sound effects from flagship Nintendo titles.

If you’re interested in checking out this novel product, you can find it sold out on Amazon, briefly available only from secondary sellers at inflated prices, indicating its sustained popularity.
