To my understanding, the Atari 800 has 4 controller ports, while the Atari 800xl only has 2... even though the xl is a later generation system.
For a development project at my University, we need to create a 4 player game, using basic. I'd like to do dev on the xl, but Im not sure if I can get 4 joystick support in basic. Im not even sure if its possible for 4 joysticks to be hooked up to the 800xl and be reconized in the same way they are for the Atari 800.
Does anyone have any insight on this? Thanks!
