I've had no luck getting my 16 segment display to work (with MM5484 chip) and am wondering if there is an easier way...
Could I use an Adafruit 8x8 matrix backpack to display single alphnumeric characters? its part of a automatic transmission contoller that I'm working on so need to be able to diplay P, R, N, D, 1, 2, 3 and 4
Is this possible?

Yes you can. In fact you could Google for Matrix font generator and find a few programs that will let you design your characters and produce useable code that you could plug into your sketch.
