## Hunter's comment
> PewPew M4 is an affordable game console programmed with CircuitPython (but also MakeCode Arcade or even Arduino, if you prefer that). When you connect it to your computer, it appears as a disk drive with all the code in Python files, graphics in GIF files, and sound in WAV files — you can just edit them with any program to make it do whatever you want. It comes with several example games and online tutorials for getting started, a good way of easily running workshops on game programming and electronics with Python. Regular Python is too difficult to install with all the necessary libraries on the participant computers.

I don't know how common it is to find a device like this that lets us play and program at the same time using modules from different languages but the truth is that I found it really great for the quality of reproduction of the games and especially for how easy it allows us to program on the go.
