Unless this is intended as a learning project, consider using a "toy" 
personal computer... something like a Commodore Vic 20 would be perfect.
If you want, you could even burn your program into a game cartridge EPROM.
Strange?  Not really...
It has a microprocessor, keyboard, video display, a good BASIC interpreter,
several assemblers avalible, and can power-on execute a "game" program.
Dig around in the closet - there are probably a couple on the shelf there.
Think about it....
