Has someone actually created a drop in FPGA 6502 yet? I thought the only modern source of 90% compatible 6502's was the WDC... I'd add the RRIOT, 7501/8501 (as just mentioned by Gerrit) and WD1770/1772 (1571/81 floppy controller) to that list as well.

But I'll add that the 6502 has been done as well by photographing the actual chip by the Visual6502 people (http://visual6502.org/). What I would like to see is some recreations of some of the the more obscure/hard-to-find chips like: 6509, 6525, TED, VIC-III (and the other C65 chips).

Find the right conditions for I/O to emulate the drive and speed of NMOS lines including going into and out of Hi-Z . Someone would have to need one heck of a hobby though.
