What Time Zone Is Texas on Nintendo Switch?
Last updated
Ever wondered while setting up your brand new Nintendo Switch in Texas, what time zone you should select? Let’s dive into that topic.
So, what time zone does Texas fall under on the Nintendo Switch? Texas is quite a big place, so this can be a bit tricky.
Time Zones in Texas on the Nintendo Switch
Texas is primarily in the Central Time Zone (CT). When you’re setting up your Nintendo Switch in Texas, you’ll most likely select Central Time (CT) as your time zone. However, it’s important to note that some parts of Texas, specifically El Paso and Hudspeth counties in the west, operate on Mountain Time (MT).
So, if you live in the majority of Texas, you’ll set your Nintendo Switch to the Central Time Zone. But, if you’re in El Paso or Hudspeth, you’ll choose Mountain Time instead. Making the correct selection ensures your game times, events, and online interactions align perfectly with your local time.
