Yeah, it's super weird. Maybe I can take some pics and post them here.
And yeah, that makes sense! It's not too different from GCN, lol.

have you tried changing the date to, say January 2nd to break the perpetual new years? If that won't work, then idk what to do, as I own GCN and haven't had this happen.
Regarding the Eternal-New-Year thing - it's very possible that the internal battery is dead. From what I understand, the regular save data is saved via EEPROM, but the clock is part of a separate battery which continuously consumes a little bit of power. If that's the case, you'd have to replace that battery for it to work again, or constantly change the date.
In terms of playing the game, I've only played this one a little! I was tempted to start a new game and start a journal here for a while. But I had issues with the clock as well, so sadly I never did.

I do have some experience with the original version, but N64 emulation has always been a bit iffy, so I didn't play for very long. It really does feel like a game in its beta stage when compared it to its enhanced ports.
I have this game and I used to play it on a regular basis for a few months. I don't know Japanese, but I do know how to read it, so I would simply type or speak the words onto Google Translate to figure out what's going on. I like this one because it has a lot of cultural Japanese things the other Gamecube versions don't have (like the shrine instead of a fountain) and because it's on the N64, one of my favorite consoles.
As for the New Year's thing repeating, this game doesn't automatically change the clock. Every time you load up the game, you have to navigate through the settings and configure the clock manually every time. Somewhat of a pain, honestly. That and only being able to store 1 item per wardrobe too.
