Instead of the Switch successor, Nintendo has this week announced a new alarm clock officially dubbed 'Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo'.

Now, if that wasn't already enough excitement for one day, in case you missed it, this new device can actually receive updates. Sleep enthusiasts who were able to purchase one today at the Nintendo New York Store can now update it to Version 2.0.0.

So, with this in mind, here are the full patch notes for the latest Alarmo update. It adds a new mode option, new records feature, includes a few other things and Nintendo is already rolling out the stability updates for it! Oh, and here's how to perform this system update:

Performing the system update

You will receive a notification if a system update is available. Press the Notification Button when the envelope icon is displayed on Alarmo to see recent notifications and follow the steps shown to perform a system update.

Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo - Vers. 2.0.0 (Released Oct 9, 2024)

  • Added “Moderate Mode” as a new Mode option.

  • Added “Movement Record” as a new Records feature.

    • This will automatically display in Records if you go to bed during “Bedtime.”
    • You can set this to On or Off in the “Records” menu on the device.
  • “Distance from bed” can now be set to 20in/50cm max for Queen and King size beds.
  • When “Check Sensor Zone” is run, an estimated “position of movement” will now be displayed.
  • General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.

If we find out anything else going on behind the scenes with this latest update, we'll let you know. Nintendo's new sound clock can be purchased in North America from the official website for $99.99, with the device scheduled to arrive in Europe later this week.

Already with the stability?! This clock's a real go-getter, isn't it?

lol.. an update for an alarm clock.. I saw the video for this and would be annoyed by every sound coming from that thing when I wake up.. what a dumb thing to release when we’re all eagerly anticipating the Switch 2.. $100 🤣 what a joke

Can't wait for the 24-hour time paid DLC! 🤪

This is up there with the worst products Nintendo have ever made.

On a separate note, any idea what this could be?

babe [NintendoLife] wake up a Nintendo Switch Online signup is dropping October 10th promising a mysterious new feature!!

@Anti-Matter It is actually already on sale at Nintendo's New York City store.

At this rate, it will be running on version 97.0.0 by the time it releases for the rest of the mortal world (not subscribed for switch online. It's the first time I've seen a v2 get released so quickly. What's the point of those following zeros if they name it like modern browsers?

Now on the stable the alarm goes off.

I think this might sell moderately well. And if it doesn’t, the price will skyrocket in a few years when people suddenly want one. I think it’s an interesting idea, not sure if I will buy one or not though.

On any other day I'd assume this headline was an April Fools' joke. What a time to be alive.

@Anti-Matter You can buy it physical in New York at the Nintendo World store, just not anywhere else yet.

“Movement record” should come in handy on date night. 😂

@UltimateOtaku91 Miiverse 2

General stability improvements to enhance the sleepers experience

For $100, it had better be... AAA.

Remember the Alarmo…

@UltimateOtaku91 it’s not that bad of a product it’s just you don’t like it because you’re not the target audience for it

@Zeebor15 if its miiverse i WILL die of happiness dont tempt me reggie
