Yes, it sold in much smaller quantities than a lot of those other devices.
Also, the 2DS shells were designed to be more durable. So it's pretty common for the screen or electronics to die, but the shell to be perfectly serviceable for reuse.
Makes sense. Kind of a bummer. I really would have expected AliExpress and similar websites to carry them for sure. Would have loved to get myself a clear shell similar to the anniversary Pokemon editions
If it's any consolation, most of those other aftermarket shells are pretty low quality.
