Yeah, there are several repositories that seek to replicate it, but at least last time I looked they're not particularly searchable. Another lemming did demonstrate that you can download the data and grep through it but I haven't been motivated to do so yet.
The use of all caps for Xbox is a return to original form, though. Microsoft’s first Xbox logo for its console was all caps, and the company has favored using similar capped versions for the Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X / S console logos.
The funny part is that upon reading your question, I figured surely the Wikipedia page would have that information. Then I saw that it said in the first few words:

Microslop just can't name things, I've accepted that, but now they managed to look stupid even while technically leaving the old name

Its bad that the trademark and branded logos match again?

And then most style guides (and human beings) will just change it back. Like they already do with "Game Freak" and others. 🤷♂️
