> Furby's code is 6502 assembler

It's actually a SPC81A [1], which supports about only half of the 6502 opcodes. It is also used in some HP calculators.

Sure. Makes me wonder how easy this code could be ported to run on the Commodore 64 though. You'd need a cartridge with the TI voice synthesis chip used in the furby of course, but it'd be doable I think. It's interesting code to read through.
