Oh, absolutely. The most familiar to software engineers is the AVR used in Arduino but there are so many 8 Bit micros out there (literally 10's of thousands different device) and new ones are coming out every month. So plenty of new development going on.

There are a couple of orders of magnitudes more Intel 8051 derivatives out there than there will ever be AVRs, and they still have yearly sales in the 100s of millions.

And how many percent of this is for new development?
