@foone There have been rumours TI kind of tried to do that.

The 99/4 and 4a had an interpreted pseudo-assembly language called Graphic Programming Language (GPL). Console TI BASIC was mostly written in it (as were many cartridges) which was why it was so slow. It defined a few things in TI BASIC like how floating point numbers worked and some of the video routines, so it looked like something halfway between assembler and tokenised BASIC.

The rumour is that TI had wanted to make a processor that used GPL as its native machine code, instead of the 9900-based design they went with.
