If you just want to dip your hand in, chip8 is also a good starting point (if even less useful than 6502): where 6502 has about 80 actual opcodes acrosss ~50 mnemonics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOS_Technology_6502#Assembly_l...) chip8 has 35 opcodes across 19 mnemonics (ADD, AND, CALL, CLS, DRW, JP, LD, OR, RET, RND, SE, SHL, SHR, SKNP, SKP, SNE, SUB, SUBN, XOR).
