Someone has purchased and repurposed a portable medical ultrasound scanner that they intended to use to scan sheep bladders and decided to see if it would run the original Doom. Given that id Software's iconic 1993 release is a game that has been ported so many times, a lot of people may have become desensitized to the sheer number of devices that the influential FPS can actually run on, but it evidently doesn't seem to stop people from trying all sorts of machines not initially built for gaming.

It also shows just how much the retro games are still in the limelight. With co-creator John Romero working on a new episode for Doom, not to mention the amount of community mods that have come about over the course of nearly three decades, it would be more surprising to come across people who hadn't experienced Doom in some form or other. Given its relatively primitive code compared to today's titles and its low-spec requirements, players don't even need a PC or gaming console to play it.

In a recent video on the Buy It Fix It YouTube channel, it seems it's even possible to run Doom on a portable medical ultrasound scanner, perpetuating the idea that the shooter can run on just about anything that has a chipboard. The channel host gives an overview of the device, a Bardscan 2 to be precise, which is a machine built for scanning bladders. They show the inner workings of the tool, saying that they wanted to repurpose it for use on a few of their sheep. Towards the very end of the nearly 35-minute video, they decide to load a copy of classic Doom, just for a bit of fun. While it doesn't have sound, it is one more example of just how diverse id Software's retro release is.

There have been so many wild and wacky devices that Doom has been ported to over the years. Everything from smartwatches to treadmills have been used to install and play the 29-year-old game, and there have even been instances of people making it playable in Minecraft for a kind of video game equivalent of Inception.

Earlier this year, id Software began hiring for an unannounced project, so no doubt many will be hoping for a new Doom entry or perhaps something Quake related. There's no way of knowing what the studio is currently working on, but given the success of the Doom reboot, it wouldn't be too surprising to once again see the return of the legendary demon slayer.

Doom was released in 1993 and is available on multiple platforms.
