Deleting your Animal Crossing island is a big step! But if you're sure, you gotta start the game and press the '-' button on the Switch during the title screen to access the settings. Tom Nook will show up and give you a few options – choose the one about deleting your island. Remember, this wipes everything, so make sure you really wanna say goodbye to your little paradise!
Go for it if you need a fresh start, but this erases EVERYTHING. No going back. Press '-' on the title screen and follow the prompts to delete.
