Summary

This model is now outdated. Check out V2 here


Retro TV case based on a Toshiba Blackstripe I made for a Raspberry Pi 3b to run RetroPie and play cartoons. Designed to fit a Pi 3b with a 3.5 inch HDMI MPI3508 LCD display. Includes a "no-signal" custom splashscreen for RetroPie.

In addition to the print you'll need:

  • Raspberry Pi 3b (might fit Pi 4 but I haven't tested)
  • 3.5 inch HDMI MPI3508 LCD display with HDMI crow connector (such as this one)
  • Right angle micro-usb adapter (such as these) to allow power cable to be connected from the back of the TV. Pi 3B uses the “down” version.
  • SD card with RetroPie (or whatever you want to run)
  • 4x M2.5x5 screws for the shell
  • 2x M2.5x8 screws for the antennae
  • 2x M2.5x8 screws for the base

Optional:

All parts except base, pi_case, and viewport should be printed with supports.

RetroPie notes:
I used the following values in my /boot/config.txt to reduce the display output to 4:3.
overscan_left=-10
overscan_right=65
