Contents Contents Overview About the Compute module Bill of Materials 3d Design Finishing touches STL files Overview This project provides a cute retro case for the Compute Module development board and the CM4 module in the style of the Atari 2600, Perfect as a retro gaming platform. About the Compute module I bought the Raspberry Pi Compute Module development board and the CM4 module during the height of the Raspberry Pi shortage that’s now, thankfully, coming to an end. The CM4 is similar in specification to the Raspberry Pi 4; however, it can also optionally feature eMMC storage instead of the SD card. The compute modules can also come with or without Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. I opted for the CM4 with 16Gb eMMC and Wi-Fi module.

This will bring the model to life and give it that retro 70s feel. Notice the orange/red outline on the front of the top section and the printed decal sticker. In his picture, it looks relatively crude, but from a distance, you can’t see that it’s a separate piece. The orange/red outline was created using an acrylic paint pen.
