→Atari XEGS
The '''Atari XE Video Game System''' ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_XEGS Atari XEGS]) was based on Atari's 8-bit 65XE computer, while the operating system for most of the XEGS units is called the XE ROM revision C. That specification is the same as any other Atari computer (i.e. 800/XL/XE) that had that ROM, which is usually why no separate software was needed to emulate this console's hardware. The XEGS is backward compatible with the Atari 8-bit computer software library. The console could be turned into a computer with its specially designed keyboard and, while in computer mode, use most of the peripherals released for Atari's 8-bit computer line.
There are no games that are XEGS exclusive; instead, they all run on the older machines (with enough memory) or on the XE/XL line as well. [[Category:Atari consoles]] [[Category:Third-generation video game consoles]]
