Hello, arduino's are capable of driving large numbers of leds, WS2811/2812 and many buttons, can multiplex using ic's like mcp23017 if you want with Raspberry Pi to get more I/O, there are other ways of driving LEDs like using 595 shift registers, so there are options, just need to know what you want.
