Nice gamefor the preK set,
Our older Leapster had taken a beating, so I decided to upgrade to the Leapster 2 since it was compatible with the previous series of games. This version seems to be a pretty significant upgrade. The downloadable content is nice, as is the ability to have the child’s progress recorded on the Leapster website. The touch screen is more accurate, and the graphics clearer. My three year old is the chief operatorof this device, and he requires quite a bit of help with the games. However, he is a special needs kid, so he is not the best gauge. He can turn it on and change games on his own. He is better with games requiring the pen than those which require the keys to control. My seven year old son, who is a DSi devoteee also likes this new Leapster. I think this game is a good overall diversion, and a fun way to sneak in some learning while entertaining your little one. Ours sees way too many hospital rooms, but it is a nice way to pass some of the time. Games for the Leapster can add up to some $$$, so I hope that this version is supported for some time to come.

|Leapster 2,
The quality of this product was everything we had hoped. However it would have been nice if it had come preloaded with at least one game. The description made it hard to tell if it had games loaded or if they were just available to use. For the price a preloaded game would be nice, since the games are about $20 each. It is durable and easy to hold and the screen is easy to see. The Toy Story characters on it make it fun. Overall satisfied with the purchase. Our 4 year old grandson does not want to put it down!

|Love the Leapster 2!!!!,
We purchased this (on sale from TRU, which was later price-matched on Leapfrog.com) a few months ago as the big Christmas gift for our 5 year old. It took about 2 nights (about 1-2 hours each) to download Leapfrog Connect and download the available games for the Toy Story Leapster 2. Pretty straightforward set up – just give yourself enough time if you must read every single word of instruction like me. The screen is very crisp (in comparison to other kids toys in this price range), and the sound is very clear. We purchased the Leapster 2 case (also on sale) as well, and the whole thing (Leapster with cartridge and three individual cartridges under the strap) fit perfectly. We also purchased the AC adapter and use rechargable batteries on-the-go (this thing gobbles up 4 AAs) in order to save on the cost of constantly replacing regular batteries. If you ever see a family with a little girl at one of those airport charging stations playing on her Toy Story Leapster 2, that’s probably us so say hi!
So far the Leapster has been handled gently, however this week the screen stopped responding to the stylus. The Leapfrog website had quick, great directions on recalibrating and viola – it’s now fixed! Obviously this is a problem that other owners have complained about before. And obviously a kids toys that’s used daily is going to have some hiccups along the way. Also, the red paint on the keys is beginning to wear off. Not a big deal, but again this is obviously from daily use. Three months so far, and this Leapster is still kicking.
The Leapster 2 just seems like a better fit for my child than the Leapster Explorer – she’s not old enough yet to need the camera and all the other options on the Explorer, but the Leapster 2 offers LOTS of game choices and other activities that appeal to her. Definitely a great purchase, and a great option for either a boy or a girl.
