The Nyko Play Clock Wakes You Up in Time for Gaming

— June 9, 2011 — Art & Design
Don't worry, the Nyko Play Clock isn't one of those obnoxious alarm clocks that require you to complete a daunting task just to shut it up. Instead, the timepiece actually gives you an incentive to wake up -- if you're a hardcore gamer that is.

The Nyko Play Clock was designed specifically to hold your Nintendo DS in place and provide it some much-needed power if you've been at it for way too long. Aside from that capability, the alarm is your standard timepiece with line-in ports, allowing for MP3 and cell phone capabilities. There's also an AM/FM radio function in case you feel like waking up to a DJ screaming in your ear.

The Nyko Play Clock is now available for purchase at the brand's official site.
