This is an honest question. In what areas of the industry does C++ dominate the language landscape except hardware drives? I used to think this was true for games but I've seen most studios move to C# as the community has matured around it. All other major spaces seem like they've moved on to more managed languages.

AAA games, embedded, operating systems (err, Windows shell at least), web servers, core libraries, etc.

Still big in medical devices too, embedded or not.
