The PC-FX control pad should be familiar to anyone who has played the PC Engine. Voltage and other power information can be found to the top of the rear panel.

To the rear of the unit, you can also find direct A/V, S-VHS connections, and the power cord. One of those connections were used for a PC-FX-to-SCSI adapter which allowed the FX to be used as a SCSI CD-ROM drive. The rear and bottom expansion ports were available for connections to the PC-9800 series of computers made by NEC. The front expansion slot was primarly used for the FX-BMP, a memory expansion module that allowed you to save games to it, rather than the FX internal memory. This option allowed you to zoom in/out and rotate the photo at will. In addition to playing PC-FX games, the unit could also play audio CDs (with an expansive CD menu control screen), CD+Gs, and Kodak CDs for viewing your home photos.

So, breaking away from the common console design, it was decided to create a tower video game system that offered (in the final design) 3 expansion ports for additional upgrades, and peripherals. Basically, if you compare a desktop PC to a tower PC, the latter will almost always have more expansion room.
