Retro TV Raspberry Pi Case V2

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 with a 3.5 inch HDMI MPI3508 LCD display and audio module hat. Some demo videos here . V2 features the following improvements over the original : Redesigned shell to fit an audio module. Added external access slot in the back for the Pi's micro SD card. Adjusted the viewport size to eliminate gaps between the 3.5" display and the TV shell. Removed the Pi case; the Pi is now mounted to the back piece which allows for much simpler opening and access to the Pi and USB ports. In addition to the print you'll need: Raspberry Pi (I used a 3B but it should also fit a 4 or 5) 3.5 inch HDMI MPI3508 LCD display (such as this one ) Pi speaker expansion board (such as this one ). HDMI flat flexible cable (such as this one ). For a Pi 3B I used A2 + A2 + 5cm cable from the link. 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. For Pi's 4 and 5 that may need more clearance for the right angle USB-C adapters (such as these ) please print the corresponding USB-C versions of the base and back. SD card with RetroPie (or whatever you want to run) 3x M2.5x5 screws for the Pi 4x M2.5x5 screws for the shell 2x M2.5x8 screws for the antennae 2x M2.5x8 screws for the base 3x M2.5x8 screws for the back A wireless controller or keyboard Optional: 30mm 5V fan (such as this one ) + 3x M3x10 screws. I also used a JST 2-pin extension cable . All parts should be printed with supports. The front is printed as multi-material. OS Configuration Notes: I used the following values in my /boot/config.txt to reduce the display output to 4:3. overscan_left=-10 overscan_right=35 CHANGE LOG July 19 2025 Added screw ports to back and shell to secure fit.
