 If it works, it's great. Aug 26, 2010
I ordered this for my 5-yr old grandson for his birthday, along with two cartridges. He also received three other cartridges from other relatives. He played with it for two days and LOVED it. Then when he went to put it on again, it wouldn't go on. My daughter-in-law researched the troubleshooting site and did all of the items they suggested -- to no avail. I had to return the item. I then ordered a second unit, since he already had 5 cartridges. So far, so good - it seems to be working fine. Hopefully this unit will last long enough for him to get some use out of all of his games. I am disappointed in LeapFrog for putting out an item that seems to fail so easily. Their reputation is really hurt by this.
 At least two years and still GREAT!! Aug 21, 2010
I bought the regular Leapster for my daughter when she was 4 and her brother was 2. He played with it enough that I bought him one when he was 3. Now they are 6 and 4 and are still playing with them. Of all their toys, this is one of the top 5 for keeping their interest. We limit the amount of time they can play which perhaps helps. We have collected about 10 cartridges and they still play with all of them. You can select from 3 levels of difficulty so each game can grow a little with the child. I can't compare Leapster to the other games because we've never had them, but I can say our kids LOVE playing Leapster. It seems educational (although they don't seem to know that, they are just having fun) and I am very glad we purchased this product. As a side note: I can almost always find the cartridges at a sale price through Amazon or the retail giants and I have had great luck buying used ones off Ebay. I dont think I have ever paid full price :)
 Why buy these, when.... Aug 15, 2010
This is an 'older' system version from Leapfrog.
Why buy these,... when you can get LeapFrog Leapster Explorer Learning Game System (Green) or the LeapFrog Leapster 2 Learning Game System - Green. The Leapster 2 is a more recent version of the system displayed here. While the Leapster Explorer is the MOST recent system from LeapFrog. The Leapster and the Explorer use diferent type cartridges. Check them out before you decide.

BEST toy ever made Jul 03, 2010
Best toy ever for those times when you need peace and quiet--think, your sister's wedding, great aunt's funeral, rest time (when your younger ones still nap), the dentist's office, long car trips, etc. even has a headphone jack so there can be no sound.
I bought our Leapster over a year ago for my oldest son (then 3 1/2). Since then, he has continued to amaze me with what he has learned from it daily. I'm talking, my five year old can do several types of math easily (Math Missions) and has been able to read since he was four (Mr. Pencil). He can count money too(Spongebob Squarepants). He has aged out mentally of most the games (even the ones designed for older kids), and I can't wait to buy the Explorer because it has the next level of games.
Even without a challenge, he still LOVES his Leapster, and despite being a rough-and-tumble boy who plays almost daily, the Leapster is still going strong. It sounds like the other models may be less durable; the original is my suggestion. We bought a hard metal case to hold all his gear and keep the system safe, and as far as the power-sucking issue, we bought a wall adapter since our son almost exclusively uses his toy at home as his big boy "nap alternative." Especially for a child obsessed with video games, the Leapster is the way to go.
 these drop like flies May 12, 2010
between my daughter and my niece, they've been through 3 of these. 2 of them had lines going down the screen before they were a year old, and all of them totally stopped working and don't even turn on. I contacted Leapfrog and they said if it's a year old and/or I have no proof of purchase, they can't do anything about it but told me I could purchase a new one on their website. I guess they don't care that they have a crappy product, as long as they're making money.
