Desktop Arcade (for Retropie)

thingiverse

Full set of STL FILES AVAILABLE AT: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/gadget/desktop-arcade-for-retropie UPDATE: Final Edit. I have now included a second control box for player 2 (player2controlbox.stl) as well as the bottom cover panel (player2bottom.stl). I designed this Arcade Cabinet because I was looking for a simple to print option that fit with my gaming needs and one that has the fewest printed pieces as possible also one with no specialty screws required. Its built with a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4 in mind with the RetroPie OS. It was intended only for personal use but I am pleased with the result and happy to share. Overall the print took me a week to build from concept, to design, to print to assembly. I continue to tweak the design and I welcome any remixes. PLEASE POST YOUR MAKES! There are plenty of Retropie videos online so I will not discuss the installation or operation of that OS.
