  1. I've been learning about #Sega's use of the #Z80 in it's early systems (#SG1000 #MasterSystem #SegaPico #Arcade) and how they incorporated one in the #SegaGenesis for backward compatibility, and also some sound processing.

    Later on they did the same with the #Motorola #68000 that powered the #Genesis; it was used in the #Saturn (but only as a sound chip.)
