So, while I was sleeping, my brother thought of a really cruel prank. He came into my room, took my Switch, and deleted not only my Animal Crossing save, but EVERY save I had on the system.

I am able to recover the saves for SOME of my games since I had them saved to the cloud, but Anmal Crossing is not one of them. I am VERY angry right now since the island I had was perfect! I had Hans, I had one of the two red fruits, and the layout was nice. Working on rebuilding now but I am VERY angry at my brother.
 
"prank"...

time to move country
 
wow, for me that would be an unforgivable offense. but i can relate to you. my brother did some """pranks""" like that to me before and i'm still mad to be honest
 
Prank? Sounds like something my brother would have done if he was angry at me when he was like 10...
That's just ignorant.
 
Omg that's horrible I'm sorry :c
Hopefully you are able to find a town just as amazing if not even better!
 
crap. sorry man. have you thought of deleting your brother?
This!

Also, weren't you the person who accidentally deleted their own town a couple of days ago? And somehow managed to get Hans twice? Hope you're able to get him a third time! You know what they say, third time's a charm. :)

I got him three times out of four actually. Hopefully this means he is more likely to show up than others, if so I might be able to salvage this new island. I already have Cherry back, and am working on paying off my home before I switch to the 21st (I am replaying the days that got deleted)
 
i'd be horrified because that's horrible lol i'm impressed by your demeanor about this whole thing and hope you can get hans back <3
 
God, what a horror story. It's really not a prank though is it, that's just being intentionally cruel. You'd think that at the very least handheld consoles would allow you to better secure your data by adding a password functionality.

you must be thinking of someone different because I've kept the first town I picked since launch day lol

although yesterday, I went on 2 tours specifically looking for cute villagers and managed to get Ken twice in a row
literally what are the odds of getting the same villager twice in a row on tours

edit: just noticed I'm an idiot

I'm so thankful that my sister and I get along extremely well and she would never do that kind of thing to me. That's really awful and cruel. That isn't a prank at all.
 
If that happened to me, I don't think I'd be able to rebuild... I'd probably sell my game and try to move on, after tons of crying
 
That's uh.. Bizarre behavior. I wouldn't be letting that slide. Not at all. Sorry to hear it.
 
you really just aren’t lucky when it comes to ac bro,, i’m so sorry
 
So many bad memories of my siblings doing this to me as a kid... *sigh*

My parents would actually do this to me too sort of, insisting on turning off the console immediately for various reasons, even when I asked for a few more minutes to save. This was before auto-save was common in video games like it is now.

So many hours wasted to redoing things...
