*In a gameplay video leaked to the public, the [[M7/Caseless Submachine Gun|SMG]] was used in a version of the map [[Zanzibar]] from [[Halo 2]]. Strangely, the SMG appeared a lot more accurate at range than in both Halo 2 and [[Halo 3]].

The logo for Halo DS.

Halo DS was a Halo game that was planned to be released on the Nintendo DS, but was canceled as deals did not work out. It was playable before it was canceled. [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.
