ZENAIM ARCADE CONTROLLER LEVERLESS Announced
The ZENAIM ARCADE CONTROLLER LEVERLESS focuses on the speed and accuracy required for fighting games, with a design that covers not only switch performance but also housing structure and internal control.
In addition to a 0.75mm short stroke design, it adopts magnetic sensing switches.
The input point is adjustable from 0.1mm to 0.65mm in 0.05mm increments.
Furthermore, the unique INPUT ARCHITECTURE, which combines internal structure and housing design, aims to improve stability during operation and input precision.
Joint Development With ZETA DIVISION Players
This product was jointly developed with top professionals from the professional gaming team ZETA DIVISION, including Momochi (@momochi212), Chocoblanka (@chocoblanka), and Hikaru (@hikaru_shiftne).
Adjustments were made to every detail, including button layout and housing size, resulting in specifications intended for use in the competitive scene.
Rapid Trigger Function Supporting High-Precision Input and More
To maximize the performance of the magnetic sensing switches, the device is equipped with several functions, including:
- Rapid Trigger function (dynamic adjustment of input points)
- Temperature compensation function
- User calibration function
The Rapid Trigger function achieves the desired input with variable actuation and reset points, and the temperature compensation function prevents the degradation of precision due to temperature changes, which is a weakness of magnetic button modules.
This enables stable input that is less susceptible to environment or individual unit differences.
Functions for Actual Combat
To prevent accidental operations during matches, it is equipped with a Tournament Lock Mode that can disable specific buttons.
Additionally, the SOCD cleaner function supports the optimization of simultaneous press inputs.
