===Third-party models=== The ''PC-KD863G'' is a [[CRT monitor]] with built-in PC Engine console, released on September 27, 1988, in Japan for ¥138,000. Following NEC's PCs' naming scheme, the PC-KD863G was designed to eliminate the need to buy a separate television set and a console. It output its signals in [[RGB]], so it was clearer at the time than the console which was still limited to RF and [[Composite video|composite]]. However, it has no BUS expansion port, which made it incompatible with the CD-ROM² System and memory backup add-ons. The ''X1-Twin'' was the first licensed PC Engine-compatible hardware manufactured by a third-party company, released by [[Sharp Corporation|Sharp]] in April 1989 for ¥99,800.<ref name=super_pcefan_vol1>{{cite magazine|title=スーパーPCエンジンファン|trans-title=Super PC Engine Fan|language=ja|volume=1|publisher=Tokuma Shoten Intermedia|date=January 15, 1994}}</ref> It is a hybrid system that can run PC Engine games and [[X1 (computer)|X1]] computer software. [[Pioneer Corporation]]'s [[LaserActive]] supports an add-on module which allows the use of PC Engine games (HuCard, CD-ROM² and Super CD-ROM²) as well as new "LD-ROM²" titles that work only on this device. NEC also released their own LaserActive unit (NEC PCE-LD1) and PC Engine add-on module, under an [[OEM]] license.<ref>{{cite magazine|date=January 1994|title=International News|url=https://archive.org/stream/ElectronicGamingMonthly_201902/Electronic%20Gaming%20Monthly%20Issue%20054%20%28January%201994%29#page/n95/mode/2up|magazine=[[Electronic Gaming Monthly]]|issue=54|page=94|access-date=March 10, 2020}}</ref> A total of eleven LD-ROM<sup>2</sup> titles were produced, with only three of them released in North America.
