The aptly named Alarmo has a motion sensor that detects movement in the bed.
If the person doesn’t get up the sounds will get more intense turning off only once they have got out of bed.
However, Alarmo is only suitable for people who sleep alone.
Nintendo states on their website that the sensor will not be able to tell the difference for multiple bodies in the bed, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Meaning couples who want to use Alarmo would need to be willing to wake up on each other’s terms.

Nintendo said: “Alarmo can’t detect a specific person, so if multiple people are sleeping in the same bed within range of the sensor, the alarm may stop when one person gets out of bed, but restart once it detects there is still someone in bed.
“The alarm will stop completely once everyone is out of bed.”
The clock was released on 9 October.

Members of the public who saw the information online were left in stitches.
Jack Ruddell said: “A company who knows their audience.”
Jessie added: “It’s a Nintendo clock, I doubt that’ll be a problem for the target audience.”
Someone else stated: “I’m literally so crushed. I wanted it so bad. Should I consider a divorce so I can wake up to peaceful Zelda music?”
Another commented: “That’s just brilliant market research.”
Another follower posted: “Anybody who’s buying a Nintendo alarm clock is definitely single.”
Nintendo have been contacted for comment.
