Finally I have a Leap Pad! Now what games?

[MorallyBankrupt]

I have finally managed to get DS a Leap Pad > so what games are worth getting? I think the pen one for some actual learning, but I know he'd love the cars one.... Are either of then worth the additional £20? Or can I just download him some apps?

We have bought 'mr pencil' (good price on Amazon) and i'm thinking of getting 'dora', not sure if they are better (less money) to download?

Just quick hijack....I'm still trying to get one, how did you get your hands on one?

I ordered one from Amazon USA when it was out of stock in UK but I see they have it on at $129 . It worked out at £60 when I ordered but then you pay a customs taz or something which was about £14...was still cheaper than the UK price at that time!

We have the cars game for leapster 2 and DS (almost 6) plays it most often. We also have some dino dig one, Diego Animal Rescue and Wolverine.

If anything like the Leapster, I never worked out how to download games (and I am fairly techno-savvy! )

Amazon had stock a few days ago as did toys r us. I bought mine on Amazon a month ago but have not got it yet (due for delivery in the next week or so).

I got it from Argos :)

flippyfloppy I got one on Thursday from Toys R Us home delivery. Argos also have them available for store pick up from the 15th. You can reserve them. I have one reserved that I don't need now if anyone is in my area (Portsmouth).

They had loads in my local tesco, might be worth a trip to Tesco if anyone is still looking for one.

Thanks all and especially MorallyBankrupt for allowing me to gatecrash your thread! I've got alerts set up from Argos but it won't let me reserve online. Cinfused about Toys R Us because I've been checking daily over last week and it would not allow me to order for delivery, is now saying out of stock until early December! Will check out Tesco. Thanks again for all the tips. I'll leave now!!! x

Hahha no problem :) I just put in my postcode and they said one of my 10 closest shops had one and then I reserved. Hope you are lucky! It's so stressful when something you need is out of stock everywhere.

I watched this www.stockinformer.co.uk/stock-leapfrog-leappad like a hawk and got 1 when they came into stock on Amazon - it hasn't dispatched yet. ( fingers crossed emotion) ELC also had some and it showed up on this as well!
I am also getting the Mr Pencil and Tangled for dd.
