The Animal Crossing Switch console restock is highly anticipated by Animal Crossing: New Horizons players, with the special ACNH console having been sold out for a while on online retailers. So when will the Animal Crossing Switch console be restocked?
The New Horizons Switch console received a limited run and sold out fast, with is quickly being snapped up by fans of the series. While production could start back up again on the system, companies such as Nintendo now being forced to work from home inevitably means that manufacturing is more difficult.
The official statement curious players have received from Nintendo support suggests that there’s a possibility that Nintendo will produce the hardware again in the future, though also note that often the company will only make a limited edition console available for a period of time. Still, with New Horizons being the fastest-selling Switch game ever, there’s definitely money to be made in reproducing the limited edition console rather than allowing price gougers to have all the fun.
