Nintendo’s annoying talking flower actually got the better of me (and that’s saying something)


A little plastic flower with swirling eyes stares at me. I’m getting closer to him. I press one button. “Sometimes it’s good to be apart,” says the talking flower. Yes. I agree. I stay quiet for once, and press the Talking Flower button over and over again. Now I know what it feels like to talk too much.

the Nintendo talking flower Not smart for body tracking A device like Alarmo. It doesn’t have a screen. It’s really just a little thing that makes sounds, like a talking amiibo that isn’t an amiibo. After playing with it briefly at Nintendo’s preview event ahead of its launch on March 12, it looks a lot like the kind of silly souvenir I’d get at an amusement park. Or another small gift at the Nintendo Store.

I don’t expect much from a $35 plastic toy, and the talking flower doesn’t seem ambitious. It has a set of pre-recorded messages that come out, either automatically over time or at the push of a button. The Talking Flower sounded a bit quiet to me, but I don’t know if it has volume controls. I couldn’t activate other settings either, including music playback mode. All I can do is press that button to make him say things.

You can’t talk to a talking flower. He’s just talking to you. But in a sense, that’s exactly how he acts super mario bros wonder, Those flowers just comment whenever you pass by.

There are a few ways this flower can be a clever household object. It tells time, apparently, sometimes, and has a thermometer to record some temperatures (I have no idea how and to what degree). It seems that it may indicate that it is time to sleep or give a wake-up call.

It’s cute and annoying, and I want to put it on the windowsill in my house. I bet I’ll mute him real quick. Or turn it off completely. But it’s another part of Nintendo’s ongoing quest to become both a movie and a game Entertainment empire As much as it is a toy company. Will this mean there will be a talking Mario, Bowser, Peach, or Toad one day? who knows. For now, you just have to take the flower.
