My game won't stop saving! :(

So I was playing my game and I had closed it for a bit while doing other things. Then I opened it back up and clicked "Save and quit". But it's been saving for 5 minutes now, which is really weird! I'm not sure what I should do. (It's the physical copy of my game).

Well the only thing you can do is to close down ACNL and relaunch it I guess. Hopefully your game did save so you didn't lose any progress but worst case scenario is that you lost your progress ><.

I wouldn't recommend closing it in case that might corrupt it. That had happened to me plenty of times before, so I just wait it out. It'll eventually stop.

EDIT: I just re-read your OP, and yeah, closing your 3DS before or during saving will definitely take some time, so just wait it out.
