Nintendo Should Remove Island Limit in New Horizons Switch 2 Edition

With the Switch 2 hype train rolling like a snowball down a winter hill, folks are buzzing about which games might get the shiny upgrade treatment. Picture Animal Crossing: New Horizons with a little extra pizzazz, yeah? I mean, Nintendo’s already teasing new versions of hits like the Zelda series, so why not give our virtual islands some love too? Sure, nothing’s official yet, but I kinda have a feeling that a Switch 2 Edition with the right tweak could be a knockout. Maybe?

So, remember when Animal Crossing was all about hanging out in quaint little villages? Enter New Horizons, where we got to play Bob the Builder on deserted islands. Yet, despite this creative playground, we were stuck with one island per save. Like, c’mon! Here’s imagining Nintendo pulls a ‘Zelda move’ and introduces more save options for AC. Not an unrealistic dream, eh?

I stumbled upon some rants online—Reddit, where else?—with players moaning about the one-island restriction. Picture this: a player juggling a gazillion workarounds just to experience more than one island. Crazy but true! Maybe it’s high time Nintendo gave us the freedom to explore multiple paradises in one game? Just saying.

Think about it: a Switch 2 Edition could finally allow us multiple islands. Imagine zipping between them on those cute little planes. Sweet, right?

Now, this game dropped in 2020, middle of the pandemic chaos, and quickly became a cozy digital escape. Sure, that makes it an oldie compared to newer games, but if Zelda can get a facelift, why can’t AC? An enhanced version might just give players a nice, nostalgic nudge while everyone waits for the next big thing in Animal Crossing.

Anyway, it’s just a thought. Or, maybe it’s more like a bunch of thoughts tangled up like holiday lights. Either way, let’s cross our fingers for a multi-island future!
