Nope, the OG Animal Crossing games aren鈥檛 on the Switch. But honestly, New Horizons is all you need. It's like they took everything great about the old games, cranked it up to 11, and set it on a deserted island. Pure magic.
Actually, not directly. But you CAN play 'Animal Crossing: New Leaf' and 'Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer' through the Nintendo 3DS family of systems if you have them. Then there's always the latest, 'New Horizons', on Switch, which is fantastic.
Short answer: no. Long answer: still no, but New Horizons makes up for it!
