retroCART USB Cartridge System

thingiverse

Do you miss the satisfying thunk of plugging in a old school game cartridge? Do you wish your USB devices were far larger than necessary? If so, then the retroCART might be for you! Inspired by 1980s VTech designs, these 3D printable shells let you relive the glory days of computing without sacrificing the capability and performance of modern technology. Originally developed as part of my personal cyberdeck, the retroCART system has now been spun off into its open source project so others can integrate it into their creations. To make it easier for you to encase your USB gadgets in comically large faux-cartridges, I've made the OpenSCAD design compatible with Customizer so you can easily tweak the design without having to fiddle with the source code. I've also included STLs of a few cartridges I've already made, which should be ready to use if you by the same devices (printer calibration not withstanding).
