My 3ds keeps crashing randomly ; n ; I've had it for 3 years. It also keeps reseting the time to 1/1/2011 at 00:00am ? Is there any explanation for this or do I need to replace it? Also the R button stopped working ages ago so I might get a new one anyway.

Have you dropped it recently? Does it make a popping sound? Has it gotten wet?

Sounds like it's going bad though.
 
I would probably send it to nintendo or get a new one, and yeah, have you dropped it or spilled something on it?
 
That's really strange. You should probably just put get a new one. It would most likely cost more to fix it then to get a new one.

This happened to me. It's probably the battery.

Turn it on and then tap the back in different places until you find a place that turns it off when you tap it, and obv reset + tap multiple times make sure it's that spot.

If that's the issue then you can either play as normal, trying hard not to touch that spot, or take the battery out and put in in again, which usually stops the tap/rest issue for a week or so.

I eventually had to send mine into Nintendo to get replaced so you'd probably have to do the same thing since there no permanent fix.
