Despite its massive popularity and a sequel that is already playable, the original Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing (2010) is currently unplayable on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. This game represents a vital piece of SEGA history and features a unique roster—including Microsoft’s own Banjo-Kazooie—that isn't available in later entries.

Why this needs to change:

1. Preservation: Thousands of fans still own the original Xbox 360 discs but have no way to play them on modern hardware.
2. Parity: The sequel, Transformed, is already Backward Compatible and optimized. The original deserves the same treatment to complete the collection.
3. Community Demand: There is a dedicated fanbase that prefers the handling and track design of the original game over its successors.

Our Request: We call on Microsoft and SEGA to work together to whitelist Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing for the Xbox Backward Compatibility program, ensuring this classic title isn't lost to time.
