The new resident rep sleeps in a tent for the first night but gets their house and storage back the next day. You keep any recipes you've learned. The rest of the game goes through the intro and K.K. Slider as normal.

I think that stays on the original switch. I'll check and get back to you.

Edit: you keep them after the transfer

This is interesting. Does the transferring resident keep their catalogue as well? I imagine so, if they keep their storage.

Oh yes! Thats great! Now I have a clear idea of what to do for my 2nd island. Thanks for your feedback!

Then, if the resident "moves" to the new Switch, do they "disappear" from their previous island?

I've bought a second Switch and when I did, I moved a second player from my main island there. It worked out nicely

The transfered player does get to keep all their apps, including terraforming. So you'll have it from the start. No need to get 3-Star town first.

Some of the town related achievements get reset.

While picking a good starting map on the second Switch, you can close and restart the game without messing up the transfer. So don't feel like you're stuck with the first 4 map choices.

Alright thanks for the tip!
