Do you still have access to the old Switch?

#

Then you can just transfer save data over

#

Do you have Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) subscription?

#

That's even better

#

hmm?

#

Don't worry, save data is never stored on micrSD card

#

it's stored on the internal memory of each Switch

#

You deleted it? 0_o

#

Weird, how come? Your old profile should still be there.

#

Unless you did a profile transfer

#

Did you do a profile transfer?

#

._.'

#

No save data is on the new Switch?

#

Since profile transfer also will bring all save data over, except for games like Animal Crossing.

#

You have NSO subscription then you can just start syncing the save data again.

#

Any other games you have checked beside Animal Crossing?

#

No other games at all?

#

Their save data should be fine then, so we'll move onto Animal Crossing

#

Those other games will have their save data transferred over, due to the profile transfer you did

#

or they will be synced via NSO

#

As for animal crossing, there's a special method to do it. Read the guide below.

After you transfer the save data over using the guide in there, make sure to launch the game with your main account first.

Because the very first person to go into the island will become the island representative

That'll be all. Have fun o/
