This is a remix of Sparrows89's Gamecube Pi Classic ( https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-gamecube-pi-classic-45314 ) and TheJeffChen's Logo Dunk Corner Stand.
I've previously remixed this case for the RPI3B and decided that I wanted to make it for my RPI4B, too - and while remodelling it to fit the 4B, I also fixed a lot of mistakes that I made on the 3B version. Some of the changes include:
thinner walls: The case requires roughly 50% less material and print time now. The walls on the original were waaaaay too thick
more vent holes: I put some more holes under the PCB and on the back of the case for better ventilation. Also, the holes on the sides now better match the original model
added the little "feet" on the front
added the little curves on the sides
added the asymmetric frame on the back
moved the insert and power button up to better match the original Gamecube's appearance (they seemed a bit too low to me on the original model...?)
made a new connection for the handle that properly snaps in place now
made the front piece more rounded to better match the original Gamecube's
changed the insert because I thought the blank one looks a bit bland. Btw: the logo's a tight fit - you may have to carefully hammer it into the insert's indent
... and I think that's it? I'm really proud of how much I've learned since making my first case, and I hope I'll continue to learn :)
