The Leapster 2 is another addition to the successful Leapster platform which Leapfrog established since 2003 with the original Leapster and various models. Technically, the Leapster 2 is almost identical to the original Leapster, all Leapster Games are compatible. Apart from the more contemporary design a USB-Port and an SD-Card slot was added. Connecting the Leapster 2 to a PC/Mac enables to download and install games and track your Gaming/Learning-progress on the Leapster-Online-Platform.
