(This includes time spent in sleep mode)
We predicted this would happen a long time ago, but I've never seen it until now. It actually broke some my code, because I assumed MILLISEC would always be greater than 0.
The same thing can happen to MAINCNT, but it would take over a year (not including time spend in sleep mode, since MAINCNT doesn't increase then).

MILLISEC overflows to a negative number after about 26 days.
Interresting.
Why would you ever leave your 3DS on with SB open for around a month?

Wouldn't that damage the 3DS's battery?
(I think that they more likely charge it while in sleep mode.)

I reference this to my tablet essentially running the same OS as phones and its components are also very similar to normal phones. So literally I could say I have a phone which I can´t use as one due to it´s size.
