Leapster 2 help: What is going on???

We just had the same problem. After going online to leapster's site we tried recalibrating the stylus to the screen and that solved our problem. The procedure is located at: http://leapfrog.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/leapfrog.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1736

Works with LeapPad1 & LeapPad2 learning tablets and Leapster Explorer & LeapsterGS game systems

The original Leapster games should play on the Leapster 2, but the Leapster 2 games will not work on the original Leapster system. To my knowledge, neither will work on the new tablet-type system.The only thing you might discover is that the original Leapster games won't look as good on the Leapster 2 games on that system - lower quality graphics, etc, much like you would see with Nintendo, etc.I hope this helps!

Hi H. Sexton-Which leapster do you have? It looks like each new game is $20+ for the Leapster 2. Thanks.

Leave the jumper where it was when you received it. Works for me, have several and suggestion get the one that has digital display. have both. one is in a trax mill (same as yours,version) other is in my conputerised flame cutter. I also found out that having a 3 1/2 floppy and the emulator together doesn't work .

I am having the same issue with just the Thomas the Train one. Everytime we bring it up for our son to play with Thomas, we get the "Just-in-time debugging" as well. If anybody figures out the solution, do post it on here, if you dont mind...

NO! it works with leappad 2, and leapster explorer. leapster 2 will only work with original leapster cartridges. they are much thicker. The leapster explorer cartridges will not fit in the leapster 2.

Thanks for posting that! We did get our replacement a few days ago and it worked fine for the whole weekend. If you're trying to buy, I guess just keep trying -I bought from LeapFrog directly and they seem to go in & out of stock quite rapidly.They never did send me a confirmation email that the replacement was being shipped though. I had to ask customer support and they finally replied with a tracking number about 3 days after it shipped out.

As far as I know, it does not. Both of my grandsons have a Leapster and love it. I am not an expert on what the Leapster is compatible with, so perhaps I should have answered "don't know." Sorry that I'm not more helpful.

Yes, I think most games for the leapsters use a stylus. This one uses it a lot, to trace letters and such.

Definitely hook it back up to the computer and see if it needs a software update or a repair. Hopefully you don't have to contact LeapFrog tech support, they are useless.

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:)

I just bought a LeapPad2 and a Leapster Explorer, I was looking at games on Amazon and when I search LeapPad 2 games, it gives me all explorer options. Before I place my order, will Explorer games work for LeapPad2?? Thanks

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

We didn't get the version that's in the picture, but we got a leapfrog leaptop a year ago and we didn't have that problem with it! I'm sure you have looked, but just incase you haven't..is there a brightness button or switch?

Sorry, I don't know what the Leapster GS is. I do know that my grandsons have the newest LeapPad and this one I bought did not fit. so instead of returning them, I bought the other Leapster. Hope that helps

Whenyou plug the leapster into the computer with the cable provided it will open up leapfrog connect. The system should have come with an install disk, but it can be downloaded for free as well. Once this program opens up, you will need to choose, or set up then choose your childs account under "my toys" my son changes his name all of the time, but it doesnt erase anything from his account. Once you are in the desired childs name on the left hand side near the bottom it says "Rewards: pets supplies and micromods" click that and then you can download treats and shampoos once daily per account (you can click into this every day and when ever you get around to syncing the system they will all download), and scroll through the games, each game has its own micromods. Some are additional puzzels earned while your child plays, or display setting and sounds, or little game add ons. The more your child plays the more of these become available till they unlock them all. I hope this helps you :)
