How to Fast Forward a Day in Animal Crossing
In Animal Crossing, if you're looking to skip ahead a day, you'll want to mess with the system clock. Just save your game and close it, then head over to your Nintendo Switch system settings. Look for 'System', then 'Date and Time', and turn off the setting that syncs the clock via the internet. Now, manually change the date to the next day (or however far you want to leap), start your game back up, and voila! You're in the future. Just remember, tampering with time can lead to some unexpected results in your village!

Can confirm, changing the console's date works. I needed to harvest fruit faster for some quick bells, and it totally did the trick. Just be careful with it; it feels a bit like cheating, and the game throws some shade at you for time traveling.
Nah, just play the game as it was meant to be! Part of the charm is in the real-time waiting.
