Raspberry Pi & Retro Builds

A Raspberry Pi wants to be a retro machine — it just needs the right house. This collection is the cases, mounts and builds that turn a bare board into a miniature TV, a beige desktop PC, or the beating heart of an Amiga — each one checked against the designer’s own page before it is listed.

Every entry states the exact Pi model and screen or board it was designed around, and what the build honestly involves. Licenses are shown as the designer published them, and the files always stay on the designer’s page.
