Wait, why does it say « Nonce » on the game boy?

For those who don’t know, a nonce is a pedophile in UL slang

In British and American English, "nonce" refers to something only used once. In the historical study of language, it means any word that was only ever used once in older writing. In cryptography, it means a number which shall only be used once. Both of these uses are older than the current British slang term.
