The MOS 6502 is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by Chuck Peddle and a team of engineers at MOS Technology. The processor was one of the most popular chips for home computers and video games from the 1970s through the 1980s.
I didn't start learning about the 6502 until after I began playing with the debugger of a NES emulator.
