The Animal Crossing: New Horizons-themed Switch (as pictured above in all its glory) has been a particularly hot product since it went on sale alongside the game back in March this year. It's been tough to get your hands on them, through, with restocks popping up sporadically in different territories throughout 2020. Today it's the UK's turn!
Available for pre-order right now, a selection of Animal Crossing console bundles including this lovely livery is available from the official Nintendo UK Store — check out the options below. If you've been longing to get your mitts on this, supply is limited so we'd head over to the website sooner rather than later.
According to Nintendo, these pre-orders are being lined up for dispatch on Wednesday 9th December, so barring a total meltdown in the postal service (hey, 2020 has been a tough one for delivery personnel across the board — with the increase in holiday post, you can never be sure!), you should hopefully get your purchase in time for Christmas. Result!

Let us know if you managed to nab one of these Animal Crossing Switches. How we wish they sold the dock separately outside Japan!

These will be snapped up by scalpers using bots, before you can say insane immoral profits on Flea-bay.
@ritouf What can I say? They're both very handsome.
I don't think now is the right time to buying a new model switch, as nice as these editions are. The rumours of a new model sound very plausible, will wait until the new year.
Gorgeous? It's suddenly turned into the shopping channel here at NintendoLife...
"Up next, a Switch case which seamlessly transitions from day to night"
I'm going to hold out in the hope of a Breath of the Wild 2 themed console.
Regarding that postal service concern.
Royal Mail have increased their delivery times this month, you can expect deliveries up to 9pm running up to the holiday season.
Even as a huge ACNH fan, I can't justify this. But, that said, I think it is cool that Nintendo offers it.
I managed to buy 2 on release day just before lockdown (one to replace my launch switch, one for my Girlfriend as a bday) and it's so beautiful.
I snagged one back in march although the right rail on my console constantly thinks my right joycon isn't attached, I really need to send it off for repair
My favorite joy con combo.
We have plenty here in Canada. For weeks leading up to Black Friday the regular Switch was pretty much sold out and only Animal Crossing Switches were in stock.
Yeah, kinda over the themed consoles... I just want themes and folders in the OS!
@Kimyonaakuma It does look gorgeous, though.
Those reappeared on French online stores last week as well.
@Linux7055 was gonna say the same. Here in Vancouver you can finally find a Switch with ease at places like EB Games, Best Buy, Walmart and online with Amazon. The Animal Crossing Switch is beautiful if you want to upgrade your launch Switch or get one in the first place. My son uses the AC version and I use a standard Neon Blue/Red combo.
