Halo DS was a Halo game that was planned to be released on the Nintendo DS, but was canceled as certain deals did not work out.
Overview
A playable version existed before its cancellation[1]. In January 2007, Matt Casamassina of IGN claimed he played a version of Halo for the Nintendo DS. On October 2, 2007 he demonstrated on-camera, and in-game footage of an early-development style version of Halo DS. The demonstrated work featured dual-wielding and a version of the Halo 2 map Zanzibar. Bungie employees later explained the Halo DS demo was in fact an unsolicited pitch that was never taken on. It did, however, remain a popular activity amongst the Bungie employees.Template:Fact
Trivia
