Did I buy the wrong Arduino?

I am detecting an event in a game using python on a win7 machine. Because I am unable to send a keypress to a focused window (the game) using python, I send a flag to teenys3.1 via serial when I want the teensy to start sending the keyboard data.
.
Both work ok independently but can not work in the same sketch because one takes the USB type of "serial" and the other "keyboard + mouse + joystick".

Should I have bought the Leonardo instead of the teensy3.1? Can I get the teensy3.1 to listen for serial data from the python program and also send keyboard.print data to the focused game program?

First time back after several years away ... still a n00b!

FYI ---Also have an Arduino Duemilanove with Atemga328 that I made a remote camera trigger with many moons ago.

void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
delay(1000);
}

void loop() {
// Your computer will receive these characters from a USB keyboard.
Keyboard.print("e");
delay(130);
Keyboard.print("e");
delay(130);

Thanks for the heads-up on the ps2keyboard. I had looked at this and had thought it was strictly for interfacing a real ps2 keyboard per the wiring diagrams. I haven't tried it with the game, (working currently on laptop away from game hardware) I have been able to send characters to the serial monitor AND to the w7 focused program -- notepad. I figure if I can "serial print" to the monitor and "serial read" from the "serial monitor" I will be able to "serial read" from the python program.

Looks like the teensy3.1 was the correct purchase.
