3DS XL or 2DS?

Nothing to see here...
iceman (2014-08-27 19:03:42)Get a brand new 3DSXL with Smash bros bundle. Or $150 for a Refurbished Link 3DSXL right now.
Nin10dude789 (2014-08-28 02:12:37)3DS XL hands down.
3DS XL has:
4.5" screen
Better battery life
The 2DS is very comfortable than it appears and it fits very well in hands. In fact, it's more comfortable than the 3DS XL, but 3DS XL still wins overall.

Are you retro?

Ok. I've been wanting another 3DS for a while now (I sold my old one), mostly because of the new Super Smash Bros. But, I don't want another regular 3DS, I would rather have an XL. So I decide to check Gamestop just to see how much a refurb would be and whatnot, then I saw the 2DS, except the price had dropped from $129 to $99 for a brand new one. And my only problems with getting one would be the small-ish screens (I have good eyes, so that's not a problem), and no 3D. The 3D, as I have seen before, adds much more depth to a game, and makes the graphics appear to be more than they really are. I rarely ever had 3D turned off on my old 3DS, and I loved it. So my question, is 3D and larger screens worth an extra $100?
Please let me know your opinions, and have a great day
P.S. I'm way past the ugly look of the 2DS. Just looks like a fat Gameboy, and I'm fine with that.
