GENKI Shows Manta Gamepad With 2.79 Inch Display At Tokyo Game Show

GENKI is pitching a controller whose screen is large enough to read settings at a glance and whose firmware can be extended through official and user-made mini-apps, which is where the pitch currently rests rather than on the shell.

GENKI Shows Manta Gamepad With 2.79 Inch Display At Tokyo Game Show

At Tokyo Game Show 2026, GENKI's booth let visitors try the Manta gamepad, a development version running on an RP2350 microcontroller and still on Kickstarter. The pad carries a 2.79-inch IPS display at 428x142 dots and, per booth materials, is expected to support Switch, Switch 2, Windows, SteamOS, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Vision Pro, with a Japan release planned.

The Manta's selling point on the floor was the screen between the grips. At 428x142 dots it is wide enough to read a settings menu without hunting through submenus, and GENKI says the display is there to keep the UI legible. The rest of the spec sheet is dense: TMR sticks with tilt weight adjustable toward 30gf to 80gf, full-range analog Pulse Buttons on A/B/X/Y, Hall Effect L/R buttons, a 1200mAh x 2 battery target, 3-axis gyro, accelerometer and compass, and voice coils in both handles. Wired polling reaches 8000Hz, 1000Hz over 2.4GHz, and 125Hz over Bluetooth LE.
