"And since the Atari 7800 is backwards compatible, the XG-1 also works on the Atari 2600."

The reasoning in that sentence is not correct. If it were, everything that works with the Atari 7800 could be played on Atari 2600s as well, which is obviously false.--217.232.226.236 (talk) 12:26, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

GNG, Atari 2600 compatibility

I've added a couple of refs to the article to get it over GNG at least. Probably a more detailed GBooks search might turn up as well, but a quick search on the internet archive turned up at least those two refs. However, if at some point this is taken to AFD let this comment stand as a "Keep or, if not keep, merge to Atari XEGS" !vote. Regarding compatibility with the Atari 2600, see Sentinel - the light-gun was clearly compatible with the Atari 2600 otherwise that game would never have been released.

@Smuckola - do you think we've covered off WP:GNG with the latest sources or shall we leave the notice up? FOARP (talk) 12:23, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
