The Nintendo Switch, codenamed "NX", is Nintendo's current video game console. Officially revealed via a trailer posted on Nintendo's YouTube and social media channels on October 20, 2016, it was released worldwide on March 3, 2017, with a suggested retail price of US$299.99. On September 13, 2018, Nintendo announced a teaser for the then-untitled Animal Crossing: New Horizons,[1] which was later released on March 20, 2020.

The Switch is a hybrid device: players can play it as a handheld console or as a home console using a TV-connected dock. Similar to the DS and 3DS, cartridges serve as the physical format of its games. The Nintendo Switch ecosystem was the first Nintendo system to use a paid online service known as Nintendo Switch Online. As such, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the first game in the Animal Crossing series where online is limited to paid users. The Nintendo Switch's built-in screenshot feature allows screenshots to be taken with the tap of a special square button on Nintendo Switch controllers; this also makes Animal Crossing: New Horizons the first mainline game not use an in-game screenshot system.

Prior to the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Nintendo released a special edition of the Switch for a limited time that features a New Horizons-themed dock and Joy-Cons. In September 2020, Nintendo announced the special edition console will return to retailers at an unknown date.[2]

The Nintendo Switch is also available as a furniture item in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp and Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Nintendo Switch Lite is the first redesign for the Nintendo Switch. It was announced on July 10, 2019, and released on September 20, 2019.[3].
