I don't think I can spend all that money on a Switch so It won't make any difference to me. I still play New Leaf a lot and will continue to do so.
Time is limited because they can kill multiplayer function of this old game in 1-2 years. Not the first time it happened afaik. However, since new 2ds is fairly new and new ac would 90% be switch exclusive I think acnl is safe for a few years
Oh Ill always play it. It doesn’t matter how popular the Switch game will be, you can’t fit your Switch in your purse with you wherever you go.
