Plays great games like Mario Kart 64, Mario Party, Legend of Zelda, Mario 64, Mario Tennis, Pokemon Stadium, and my personal favorite, Super Smash Bros.

Alarm clocks are an obvious necessity for any college student. Waking up, whether early or some times past noon, should be done in style. Here are some interesting alarm clocks to make waking up a little better.
This alarm clock will be sure to get you up. It allows you to hit the snooze button once before it jumps off your desk and rolls around on the ground beeping like crazy. You'll have to get up out of bed to catch it and turn it off before your roommate kills you.
The water powered clock is just that and more. Its a clock powered by water, soda, coffee or even beer! This one isn't an alarm clock but it is a fun addition to your dorm room.

What could be better than waking up and getting a workout at the same time? The dumbbell alarm clock makes you do a predetermined amount of reps before it shuts off. It also has a normal function for those of you who don't want to work out too much.
This is pretty self explanatory. The helicopter top of this alarm clock flys away when it goes off and you must return it to the base in order to shut it off. This one is for those nights when you just know you aren't going to be waking up in the morning without some extreme convincing
Place this unique alarm under your pillow and it vibrates you awake. Great for not waking up your roommate and a more peaceful awakening than the usual loud obnoxious beeping.
This alarm is an early morning test of accuracy and patience. Try aiming the gun at the target and pulling the trigger while keeping your eyes closed....not easy!
This alarm clock gives you good incentive to wake up. You can either keep hearing to ringing or hit the top button to turn it off...and get shocked! How electrifying.
I know most college students are running low on money if not flat broke, so I would not suggest this alarm to most. This wi-fi enabled alarm donates money to a charity straight from your bank account every time you hit the snooze button. It also keeps a running total of your past donations from snoozing. This is the ultimate weapon to snoozing, but what a charitable way to wake up!
