The NEC 3D and 3Ds both are.  These are the most common ones.

There are also some others...
I also have an old NEC 1, which appears to be electronically identical to the C= 1950.  I really should get some photos of it up.  I've never seen another one...  It might be really rare.   I think there may be one or two more models, as well.

I don't think so.  Unless you specifically find information that the monitor supports 15khz or CGA/EGA/VGA, I don't think it'll do the NTSC/PAL modes.

[edit] - none of those seem to.  A good place to look for that information is an X Windows monitor timings file.  You need a 15khz Horizontal Sync as the low end of the acceptable range.     Check out the frequency range for a NEC-3D vs any of the above...

urm... I used to have a Nec 3D, and can state for a fact it did not do the PAL/NTSC modes...


Hmm... Maybe you had a defective one?  I have one and I can say for a fact mine does NTSC/PAL.  There's even a picture of mine somewhere in the photo gallery with a 15khz NTSC kickstart screen displayed on it.  :lol:

@Amigadave -

You need to re-read my post!  :lol:

I was correcting Nostalgiac who said his did not go to 15khz.  There's a picture of mine in 15khz in the gallery!

A bad shot of My NEC 3D
