"After sharing a brief look at its new Talking Flower toy during a Nintendo Direct showcase last September that generated more questions than answers, Nintendo has finally revealed more details about what the interactive toy actually does. It shares some functionality with Nintendo's Alarmo alarm clock, but the Talking Flower seems more like a talkative companion for fans of Super Mario Wonder."
"First and foremost, as the name implies, the Talking Flower will just randomly speak a couple of times every hour when left alone with phrases like "sometimes it's nice to space out," and "is it weird for flowers to talk?" A single button on the toy can be pressed to trigger random thoughts on demand, or you can press and hold the button to silence the Talking Flower for a while. There's music, too, and at launch it will support 11 different languages including English,"
"You can also set the Talking Flower to speak at specific times of day, such as greeting you in the morning or saying good night as you head to bed, and some of its random phrases are only triggered at specific times of the day. It's got a built-in sensor so it can comment on the temperature in the room,"
Nintendo's Talking Flower is an interactive toy that randomly speaks a couple times each hour with phrases such as "sometimes it's nice to space out" and "is it weird for flowers to talk?". A single button triggers random thoughts on demand while press-and-hold silences the toy temporarily. The device plays music and supports 11 languages at launch, including English, Italian, and Japanese. It can be scheduled to speak at set times and has time-specific phrases. A built-in sensor lets it comment on room temperature, and it vocally indicates low batteries. Preorders open today and the toy releases March 12, 2026. A Mario Wonder Switch 2 update adds a bellabel flower power-up on March 26.
