Quoted from Sheprd:

Does anyone know of any pinball manufacturers other than Game Plan that used the Z80?

I believe the Data East 128x16 dot matrix displays used a Z80.

Quoted from mbaumle:

The TI-81, TI-82, TI-83, and TI-84 calculators that every high school student and college student own for their math classes still runs on a Zilog Z80. They just increased the frequency every iteration. I always thought that was cool.

Yeah even the newest one is based on the eZ80 Acclaim which has a lot of modern IO options.

But mostly I think TI just wants to reuse their 30 year old code
