Looks like an EXTREMELY worn out phillips, a quarter of the screws inside my 2DS ended up like that after 2 disassemblies and rebuilds...
...but I never saw that happening to the bottom cover, if you're the first owner then I don't have a clue on how it ended that way, maybe it's some demo model?
Well, while I did some research, The limited edition 3ds xl and the normal 3Ds XL have different screws :/

Apparently they are only 2 screws, one the uper side and one the the down side
no, I have an albw console and it has normal screws, that just looks like someone screwed the screw *ba dum tsh*

Get a rubber band, place it over your screwdriver's tip and pray to god that it works. Just need a lot of patience and care.
Or a piece of surgical tube. They are the best choice. If that doesn't work, drill the screw or make a small notch so you can use a flathead screwdriver
