I have tried 2 copies and cannot make them work with the leapster GS - has anyone made it work with a GS?

I am sorry as we do own this game but we play it on the Leap pad ultra and it works great. We do not own the GS.

We only have the Leapster Explorer and the LeapPad 2 and it works fine on both of them. I have no idea about the GS.

We have the leap pad 2 and it works fine but I did have to return the first one because it didn't work. The second one did work and we haven't had a problem with it.

That I don't know. Best to go to the LeapFrog website and check in with one of their tech guys. They should be able to help. I would think there would be a way to make it happen.

I purchased from Amazon a Star Wars game for my grandson for the old Leapster. If you have an updated new version game system I am not sure then but usually if you click on the game it will tell you what system it is friendly with. Hope this helps:)

This will work on the original Leap Pad 1 (as all green 'explorer' cartridges should) but will not work on the earlier versions of the leapster that had blue cartridges.

I did post a fix for this that has helped many until leap frog gets around to it. I am a parent that has one of these and was not seeing any progress with a fix from leap frog so I took matters into my own hands. I posted my fix here http://jdrwebnow.net/leapster2_fix.html.

Thanks. The graphics seem better with Leapfrog compared to our Baby VSmile, and I'd like to buy the VSmile for the game compatibility but can't afford that and a Leapster.

Works with all LeapPad learning tablets, LeapsterGS and Leapster Explorer - hope this helps

Hi,Well I have been trying to buy one of these for like 2 months now. It was always sold out everywhere. Finally at Target the manager told me that Leap Frog had stopped sending them out to retailers and also recalled the ones they had in stock. Mainly because they found a problem with the leap pads, some sort of glitch. I called Leap frog and they still don't know when they will be out and fixed. This is probably why you still have not received your new one. Hope you do... Take cae!

We have the Leappad and it works on that and according to Amazon it works on the Leapsters also. It states that in the description of the item.

I've got the same thing happening over here. Guess I'll need to contact Leapfrog too. :(

Sorry but I'm not sure, I bought it for my grandson who just has the Leapster!

Hey there Happy Momma. From what I know, you cannot use the Leapster Explorer recharger station with the LeapsterGS. You would need to get the recharging battery station specifically made for the LeapsterGS.

My Son has the leap pad ultra. All the games from leap pads work on it! Hope this helps!

I am also having the same problem, as I'd like to buy a Leapster for my grandson who is a lefty. I bought my granddaughter the original Leapster two years ago and he wants the same one. However I'm afraid there won't be any games available after about a year. Yet with the Leapster 2 doesn't look to be lefty friendly with the stylus on the right backside. The only thing I can think of is to cut the cord.

Yes. Explorer games are compatible with the leap pad. Earlier models (leapster, leapster 2) are not compatible. Hope this helps.

I called Leapster with that question and they do not rec rechargeable batteries b/c they aren't as strong as reg batteries even when they are new and thus the game may not work properly. Logically though, I'm wondering the diff. in the batt pack and rech batteries. Hope this helps.

Here is an easy solution I found. If you want to play the pet game take out any game cartridges that are in the leappad. It seems like when there is a game in there, it has problems launching some apps. Hope this helps!
