Nope, keep your island where it is. Transferring data feels like preparing for a space mission with all the steps involved.

Yes, you can transfer your Animal Crossing: New Horizons data to another Switch! You'll need to use the Island Transfer Tool, which is a free download from the Nintendo eShop. Just make sure both Switch consoles are updated to the latest software version. Follow the in-game instructions, and you'll have your island moved over in no time. Remember, this transfers your entire island, not just your character.
