Ok, the same just happened to me with a friend's 2DS.
At first, I thought it was the charger because it was broken on the socket pins side.
Repaired it but console still wouldn't boot. (Charger now Works with my 2DS)

Tried with a battery from one of mine. Still no boot.
Tried his battery on my 2DS, battery is OK.

Opened the 2DS and saw the sleep switch broken inside.
Been Reading this: https://gbatemp.net/threads/2ds-wont-turn-on.448444/#post-6828610 and I believe it's the same problem.

Will post an update after fixing it.

Ok, just to confirm, it was the sleep switch.
After shortening the 2 pins as the thread I posted, console came back to life, :)

@AyanamiRei That switch is really s****y and can be easely damaged out of nowhere.
If you feel confortable opening the 2DS, it can be fixed without much trouble.
Be extremely careful with the screws and the ribbons.

Good luck.
