Starting fresh in Animal Crossing New Leaf? Just boot up the game and hold down the A, B, X, and Y buttons right after the Nintendo 3DS logo appears. Isabelle should greet you and ask if you want to delete your save file. Just follow her prompts, and you'll be starting a new life in no time!
Hot take: Instead of deleting your whole town, why not just start with a new character? You can experience the fun of starting fresh without losing everything. Just a thought!
