6502 is still currently used, by the way. The Tamagotchi games use a GeneralPlus 6502C, for example. There's a new Tamagotchi out this week that has NFC but is so much like the previous version otherwise, it's probably still using the same code:

- csmuk 13y agoThe 6502 is still used widely in industrial stuff. Back in 2001 when I was still doing electrical engineering bits, as part of a project I received some brand new custom radio rig test equipment to integrate with an automated testing rig plugged into a PC running DOS (meh). We took it to bits to get access to the documented serial port header. Inside was a pristine gold turned pin socketed 6502. It was the only chip on the board that had that privilege. It was like it was being worshipped by the engineers. We sent the test team who built it a big "you're awesome" card.
