NEC released a revised version of the Pc Engine DUO with a slick white design of the console to reduce both manufacturing costs and the sale price.
This new version, theĀ PC Engine Duo RĀ went to market on March 25, 1993..
The Duo R omits theĀ 3.5 mm phone connectorĀ forĀ headphones, and the locking switch for the lid of the Duo'sĀ top-loadingĀ CD-ROM drive. The Duo R has an off-white, differently shaped chassis.
This Home system is looked-after by collectors and NEC fans and is hard to find nowadays.
It is the 2nd version of a serie of 4, for the Pc Engine DUO.
