Here's one idea I had. I don't know if it's too
retro-looking though:

idea (white thick
border around everything and subtle shadow), it's not retro at all, I'd
say the opposite (it seems this kind of typesetting design is used in
current anime a lot, for example). Maybe try some blur on the shadow?
(or is that dark blue "border" supposed to create a 3D effect instead of
shadow?). Or play a little with pronouncing more 3D feel (flat, but
thick sing) + a subtle drop shadow.
Here's the idea quickly sketched:

One thing slightly bothers me though -- the "10" looks like a snail when
0 is rendered as fedora logo... That's not giving out exactly positive
message ;-)
