Many gamers have fond memories of Valve's groundbreaking FPS tactical game Counter-Strike. It is considered a milestone in first-person shooters, and its competitive gameplay has been a hot topic of discussion until now.
Whether it's the original Counter-Strike or Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, these games are Valve's masterpieces, ranking at the top of the Steam online user list, and the active e-sports competition continues to this day.
However, CS has long been playable only on PC, and attempts to bring it to consoles have not been successful. With Valve coming soon with the Steam Deck handheld, that's expected to change in the near future. What exactly will CS look like in the handheld? There was no need to wait, as one fan managed to bring this FPS to the NDS.
Netizen Fewnity showed how CS worked on the Nintendo NDS. This includes programming the NDS's touchscreen to use certain features while the top screen shows the operation in progress.
Weapons can be switched on the bottom screen, as well as the player's perspective can be controlled. The cross keys are used to control the player's movements, while the other buttons are used to shoot guns. This version includes sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols, and melee weapons.
Fewnity has been working on NDS for some time now, and the latest video shows players playing through the alpha version. This version has unfinished WIP single player and multiplayer modes, although it is currently possible to match robots. Other missing features include all weapons, such as grenades and other equipment, as these are not currently programmed in this release.
In any case, the enthusiasm of the fans is still shocking. Fewnity implements a lot of things on this version, such as compatibility with Nintendo's Shock Pack, weapon switching, and setting up on dedicated servers, and even cross-platform with PS Vita online.
