This happened to be the only toy that my son was truely excited about and asked for by name for Christmas last year. Wouldn’t it figure that it was also the only toy that completely stopped working with in an hour of him playing with it?! How do you explain to your 6 year old that the game he waited so patiently for just went ka-put on Christmas day??? We spent the rest of they doing our best to distract him so that he wouldn’t recall the broken toy while passing it around between all the adults trying to figure out what the heck happened. To this day we havn’t figured out what happened. So, sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this simply because I wouldn’t want someone else to have to go through that same situation that we all went through.

This is a great learning tool for pre-schoolers and older. Games are designed with fun and education in mind. My son and I are happy with this product.

We purchased the black Star Wars bundle Leapster 2 from Target. The software loaded perfectly, the SD card worked even though I installed a 512mb instead of the recommended 256 or less, the games downloaded from Leapfrog’s website easily.
I wonder how many of the issues others have had with the software are due to the increased Christmas holiday traffic on Leapfrog’s Website? Not sure, but our Leapster 2 works perfectly. Either Leapfrog is working out and correcting the software bugs, or we got lucky with a good device. Either way, we are very pleased with the Leapster 2.
The games that you download are very simple and best suited for pre-k age kids (number recognition, shoot the number 8, etc…) The graphics are basic, not the super detailed graphics of other hand held gaming systems. However,totally acceptable for the younger child. The Leapster 2 is a nice balance between gaming and educational content for a young child. I think it definitely fits the advertised age range, 4-8, beyond that kids are looking for something ‘cooler.’
