The renewed interest in the Fallout franchise has led to one person playing the first game in the post-apocalyptic RPG series on a platform discontinued years ago: Nintendo 3DS. That’s right, it’s now possible–thanks to a mod–to visit the wasteland in its original form on the handheld system.

However, a Reddit user transferred their “original, legally purchased copy” over to 3DS and says it’s “running great.” The only issue they’ve experienced is the fact you have to “cycle between left and right click with [the] L button.”
