I love the 2DS!!! I have an X and Y limited edition 3DS XL, and I literally never touch it anymore. Not since I got my 2DS a while back. I just love that thing! It's so comfy to hold - much more so than any other in the 3DS family. It also just feels so much more fun to play for me. It's also super durable and I feel much more relaxed with it than my limited edition XL which cost me $200 and is limited edition so if i break it i'll never ever get another one. I dunno why I like it so much, but I do. ;__; It's also cheaper and I never use the 3D modes anyway, so I'd recommend everyone get a 2DS over a 3DS.
