alt Hacker NewsWhy not for 3 eur buy some basic arduino or other tiny hardware to tinker with and for another few eur, tiny i2c/oled display, wires and set of basic switches? You start programming with option to expand to the larger project in the future. You have constraints of real device, community is much larger and there are more learning resources.

Because moving a sprite is much more exhilarating than blinking an LED.

For starters, there is way more friction both in buying hardware and waiting for it to arrive and developing on real hardware in general.
I agree however that it's super cool to have real hardware to run this on.
