Geeky Gadget Wish List #12: Super Mario Bros. Alarm Clock

Goomba!

I’ve already designed a very geeky alarm clock, however this Mario one has a bit more interactive charm. Sure I could have loaded it to the gills with all sorts of bells and whistles - but I just want to be able to flatten a Goomba when I press Snooze.

What I like is that Super Mario Bros. 3 has this UI (User Interface) at the bottom of the screen that makes for a great Alarm Clock face design, something very few games can pull off.

This clock would need that Goomba-stomping sound effect, as well as other vintage Mario songs and sounds. A bit toy-like I admit, but would sure make waking-up a more pleasant experience.

If you like this or any other geeky gadget I have created for the blog, you should bug Thinkgeek here in their email submissions page. They do consider making a product a reality if there is enough interest. They don’t respond to a completely-staged hostage crisis, I’ve learned.
