The Leapster2 Explorer is a handheld console developed and marketed by LeapFrog Enterprises as the third generation of the successful Leapster series at the same time as the Didj2 console.[1] Like its predecessors, the Explorer is aimed at children aged 4 to 9.
Unlike previous systems in the Leapster series, the Explorer is not compatible with [[Leapster] Lmax] cartridges, but it can run Didj cartridges.
Hardware
The Leapster Explorer is a Linux device powered by an ARM9-based processor clocked at 393 MHz with 64 MB DDR SDRAM, 512 MB user storage, and a Giantplus touchscreen display.[2][3]
Like the Didj and unlike the Leapster2, the console has also been a subject to user modification as it runs on an embedded Linux kernel. There has been a number of homebrew software written and/or ported for the device.
