Resetting your Animal Crossing game is like saying goodbye to your little virtual buddies, but hey, sometimes a fresh start is needed! To do this on your Nintendo Switch, just launch the game, then press and hold the '-' button on the left Joy-Con during the Nintendo logo screen until Tom Nook pops up to chat about resetting your island. Remember, this will erase all your progress, so make sure it's what you really want!

Just press the '-' button when the Nintendo logo shows up and follow Tom Nook's instructions if you're ready to wave goodbye to your current island life. But remember, there's no turning back!
