Does Animal Crossing: New Horizons need Nintendo Online?
Ya don't NEED Nintendo Online to enjoy Animal Crossing: New Horizons. You can still play the game, decorate your island, hang out with your animal friends, and catch all the bugs and fish your heart desires. The catch is, without Nintendo Online, you won't be able to visit your friends' islands or invite them to yours, which, let's be real, is half the fun. So, it's not required, but for the full experience, I'd say it's pretty essential.

Nope, not required at all to get started and have fun. But if you wanna show off your island or see what others are up to, you'll need it.
Honestly, playing ACNH without Nintendo Online is like eating a sandwich without bread. Sure, it's doable, but why would you?
