The PC Engine CD-ROM² was a pioneering video game peripheral released by NEC in 1988. It was the first system globally to utilize CD-ROM technology, offering significantly larger storage than traditional cartridges. This allowed for high-fidelity Redbook audio, vibrant cinematic cutscenes, and expansive worlds. Often combined with the base console via an Interface Unit, it revolutionized the industry, setting the stage for future optical-disc media in gaming.
