I don't think it'll reach that point, but whereas a few months ago I would have offered a definitive "no" their continued support for it makes me think they probably have at least another year of life planned for the thing, so it's not impossible.
I'm honestly quite tempted to get the 2DS XL (despite owning the 3DS XL and New 3DS XL lol) because it looks so thin, nice, and doesn't cost much. Honestly, the 2DS XL might help sell a few, as it essentially dropped the entry cost of the "best version" of their handheld (assuming you don't care about 3D) by quite a decent amount, and cool games are continuing to come out for it.
It has a robust library at this point and, if they really want to, they can keep pumping these out (manufacturing costs will certainly drop without hardware upgrades) and selling them for increasingly less over time if they so choose. There'd definitely be people who were never quite convinced to get it that would buy in if the top experience drops down around $100.
