Don't think it meets CFI. Equinox 17:02, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I found 4 possible citations:
All Usenet; nothing at all on Books. Just press CTRL+F to find their uses on the page. Do you think this can suffice? Otherwise, I can't find anything else, except a few French ones that use the same word. If a total three of these can't pass as an attesting citation, nothing will AFAICT.

If they are durably archived, it should suffice. Kiwima (talk) 20:15, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
They're all Usenet, and we can separate at least 3 of them apart a year, so I'm gonna go ahead and say cited. PseudoSkull (talk) 21:40, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, they seem to all be from different authors and to span from 1994 to 2010, and they are apparently all from Usenet groups, so they are sufficient. - -sche (discuss) 22:21, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW there are at least three independent citations of Atari-esque with a hyphen, going back to 2011, in magazines and newspapers that can be searched on Issuu. I didn't spot any of the unhyphenated form on Issuu. - -sche (discuss) 22:19, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
