Would it be possible to dump the contents of an AY 3 8500 pong chip onto a computer and burn them to an eeprom chip?
This question has been bugging me for a few days and I didn't know who to ask, but I figured the people here would know better than any.

It's not a ROM chip, there is no "game code". It's simply a single IC version of the multi-IC discrete based PONG and PONG clones. I.E. the games are still done through discrete logic, there is no CPU running code.
