Just a reminder that it's Scaredy Cat in the Spooky Woods season

This is a real splash screen from an official LeapFrog game by the way (LeapSchool Reading)

Alternate reality where @leapfrog.bsky.social got the license to use Blinx on the didj instead of Sonic

Has anyone ever 100% completed Nancy Drew: Mystery in the Hollywood Hills on the LeapFrog Didj? The closest I've gotten is 98% and it seems random. Just did another playthrough where I did the exact same steps as the first one and ended up with 97% completion.

I improved this a bit. This isn't trying to be a real product or anything, I'm just having fun.

Imagine installing the original Xbox font on your LeapFrog didj

I only have the best games ever made on my computer

Fun fact: The LeapFrog Didj had a MIDI synthesizer that went completely unused. The only game that was planned to use it comes with a firmware update that places a render of the MIDI in the UniversalAudio folder and uses that instead of the MIDIs.

Forget what I said in the previous post. You can just skip it by pushing the question mark in the upper right corner. Also, there's an alternate version of the registration page that's still up... I have no idea if it actually works though.

If the LeapTV registration site that LeapFrog disabled mentioned in my previous post truly bricks unregistered LeapTVs (with the only way around it being hacks), please politely bring it up to LeapFrog. If more people do this, they might reverse this action.

Leap @leapthefrog.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

LeapFrog delisted the LeapTV's games and might've (maybe without realizing?) made unregistered systems unusable by disabling the webpage that's used to register it.

I've made some progress on the Jetpack Heroes level editor over the past few hours

Leap @leapthefrog.bsky.social · 22/03/2026

Might make a level editor for Jetpack Heroes on the Didj soon. I removed most of the game logic from a game I made last year and it's ready to be used as a base for this.

Your website needs a tune up

Hello @leapfrog.bsky.social! I made a model of the LeapFrog Didj mascot (Astro Guy) today.

Remember that all suitable housing should at least have a door, a frame, walls, a table, a chair and a light source.

LeapFrog tried to trademark the word "FROG" at one point

I'm not an official @leapfrog.bsky.social account by any means, but I'll still help them advertise their upcoming console on here because they aren't doing that for some reason.

I totally haven't been debugging the Leapster on a work in progress fork of MAME that boots Leapster games to figure out all of the secrets it holds

The "My Photo Album" game from Top-Secret Personal Beeswax on the Leapster running on MAME with the debugger opened. The watchpoints were set to the offsets of various instrument pitch values in the BIOS and one of them was reached, leading the MAME stopping emulation at the code that accesses it.

Counting on Zero for the @leapfrog.bsky.social Leapster L-MAX is an educational video game that teaches number recognition and counting to kids. This is what Zero looks like:

Leap @leapthefrog.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Entering .ZROSTER while signing in on Counting on Zero enables debug mode. You can press down + B to open a hidden cheat menu and up + B to fly. Flying even works in minigames where Zero shouldn't exist.

Anyone have a Leapster 2 with a non-functional touch screen? This *might* help you: Hold the hint button while booting it up and press A when you enter the hidden diagnostics menu. Now try to calibrate the screen by tapping the spots it tells you to.

Guys, I don't think Sagrus from Dragon Kingdom on the Leapster 2 likes the sun and all the pretty colors

Howdy @leapfrog.bsky.social! Here's a Leapster memory map! I hope you find my unprompted (and potentially educational) documentation useful! 0x01800000-0180FFFF - Registers 0x3C000000-3FFFFFFF - SDRAM 0x40000000-7FFFFFFF - BaseROM 0x80000000-BFFFFFFF - Cartridge ROM
