Unlike all other Nintendo handhelds, the switch (lite included) does NOT have a lanyard hole. Not have a lanyard hole means that you can not strap it to your wrist. That indicates that it is not portable. Actions speak louder than words. Thank you for coming, really.

Then obviously, it's not meant to be portable. Duh. Every portable console since the GBA's had a lanyard hole. Despite the fact that I've never seen ANYONE USE THEM EVER, obviously, they're a necessity.
I have seen one person use it, my friend who owns a vita(coinidentally, he is the only person i know irl who owns a vita) had a greg heffley hanging on the lanyard port(he got rid of the chain or what ever it's called at some point)

Huh. When I worked at a used game shop, I refurbished about a million DSI XLs and 3DS XLs with lanyards or keychains dangling from the loop, but never saw one actually in use by a person. Weird thing is that it was only the XL consoles, I rarely saw a DSi or 3DS in their normal form factor with one looped on.

I use it all the time! Right now, on my GBA.
I was initially going to make a joke like "Oh, hah, yeah, as if you're browsing GBATemp on a real GBA." until I realized that phrasing doesn't imply you've sent the message through the console you're using.

Gosh, I hate this language.

You're a cuber?
Indeed I am :) Not any special speeds or anything, but I do enjoy solving them. I have a small 2x2x2, a big 2x2x2, an old crappy 3x3x3, a newer slightly less crappy 3x3x3 (I want a good speed cube tho), a nice 4x4x4, and a really nice 5x5x5. Oh, and a 3x3x3 mirror cube (that shape-shifts)... and one sudoku 3x3x3 but that's no fun.
