==Hardware== [[File:SSD-XaviXPORT-Game-Cartridge-Motherboard.jpg|thumb|Circuit board of a Xavix game cartridge. Unlike other video game systems, the processor (left COB) is part of the cartridge.]] The XaviXPORT was developed by eight engineers who worked on the Nintendo Entertainment System.<ref>{{cite web |title=XaviXPORT (Platform) |url=https://www.giantbomb.com/xavixport/3045-132/ |website=Giant Bomb |access-date=22 December 2018 |language=en}}</ref>{{dubious|date=April 2021}} The processors were built into the games themselves with the more basic games using the same 8-bit 6502 CPU as the NES. More advanced games were released using the 16-bit 65816 CPU, the same CPU on which the Ricoh 5A22, the CPU employed by the Super NES, was based.

==Software==

Many games released for the system included specific controllers needed for the game to work, while other controllers were compatible with several games. The library of games is mostly shared between Japan and the US, with European releases being mostly exclusive.

There were '''{{table row counter|id=xavixgames|ignore=1}}''' titles known to have been released. This list is incomplete. Some games are not confirmed to be the same/different between regional releases.
