Do you have to have nintendo online or wtv to play with other people in animal crossing like to visit their island and stuff ;-;

I have Nintendo Switch Online

If using the internet, I am pretty sure you need to have Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) in order to visit other peoples' islands/have them visit you, as well as be able to download custom designs and upload your island to the dream address thing. I don't think NSO required for local play, but I could be wrong.

If you can afford it, I think it's definitely worth it, especially if you have multiple friends who are actively playing ACNH!

Popping on here to say that NSO is not needed for local play. I used to connect to my siblings' islands while in the same room when none of us had NSO. But that's also useless news for connecting to people on here though.

Oh, interesting! I didn't know that. I had just assumed that Nintendo had tried to cash in on existing in the same space. But good to hear they haven't (yet).

Yes to playing online no to playing locally (like Corrie mentioned) I used to connect that way without NSO for a while. I think your Switch also comes with a free week trail or something. You might have to log on to the E-shop to find it.
