[[File:LaserActive.jpg|thumb|The Pioneer LaserActive]]The '''[[gametech:Pioneer LaserActive|Pioneer LaserActive]]''' is a converged device and , fourth-generation device capable of playing LaserdiscsLaserDiscs, Compact Discscompact discs, console games, and LD-G karaoke discs. It was released by [httpswikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_Corporation |Pioneer Corporation] in 1993. In addition to LaserActive games, separately sold add-on modules (called "PACs" by Pioneer) accepts Sega accept[[Mega Drive]] and [[PC Engine]] ROM cartridges and CD-ROMs.

Pioneer released the LaserActive model '''CLD-A100''' in Japan on August 20, 1993 at a cost of ¥89,800, and in the United States on September 13, 1993 at a cost of $970 USD. NEC later released a cloned version of the system, the NEC PDE-LD1, which also accepted Pioneer's PAC modules. The LaserActive was a commercial failure.

Currently , there are no emulators for LaserActive games.

<blockquote> Emulation of the LaserActive, if attempted at all, would be an incredibly difficult task – due to the hybrid nature of the system’s hardware (utilizing Sega/NEC hardware in synchronization with the unique LD player hardware) and the analog-digital composite image (analog video background, digital in-game graphics generated by said Sega/NEC hardware)<ref>https://laseractive.wordpress.com/faq/</ref></blockquote>

Emulation Developer Emulator developer Nemesis has made an effort to dump the games for the system (except for porn games). <ref name="Nemesis">https://gendev.spritesmind.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1647&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0</ref> Copies of the games will be sent to him and will be dumped and then sent back.<ref name="Nemesis"/>
