Leapster 2 Music (MIDI rip)

  • Since the MIDIs recently appeared online, I decided to redo this one with the MIDIs. The soundfont is still incomplete (and isn't the one with GM mappings that you can find online), but I plan on making it as accurate as possible to the hardware. The models seen in this video were made by me (Quigley and Edison are still incomplete - Quigley doesn't have a body and Edison still needs some work)

    Oh cool you’re making a revised soundfont? That’d work so well!!

    So nostalgic... I used to play this thing all the time

      Same. The art game (Creativity Castle) is the one I played the most. I also had an older model where it was still called the Color Corral.

      What's your favorite Leapster game?

      From a technical standpoint:
      Letters on the Loose. It does a lot of neat stuff with the Flash player.
      From a gameplay perspective:
      Honestly don't have one. Most of the games on this thing are of similar quality from what I've played. If I had to pick some, I'd probably go with the Arcade-Style Learning series of games since they play at a higher framerate than 8fps and feel better to play as a result.
      Oh, the Spider-Man game is pretty good too. The amount of stuff you can interact with on each screen is impressive by Leapster standards and the animation is pretty good.
      Now for my least favorite games:
      - Counting on Zero (not the worst game on the system, but it runs horribly and was massively improved upon by Sonic X and Go, DIego, Go. It looks nice visually, but actually playing it is painfully unfun for me.)
      - Phonics Lesson One (it's literally just a quick 5 minute book with 1 or 2 minigames thrown in)
      - The Incredibles (from what I played, it felt more like a chore simulator than a game based off of The Incredibles)
      - Story Explorers (all of the minigames go on for what feels like years... They're so unbearably slow.)xtrapikachu1741

      Mine is Cars. It's mind-blowing that they managed to pull off 3D scaling like that.

    Do you possibly have any midis from the Little Touch LeapPad? Specifically the songs from “One Bear in the Bedroom”. Still pretty cool seeing your progress so far, the menu music sounds just like the real deal!

      That's possible. We just have to wait and see if it ever gets added to that archive page.

    LeapPad MIDI?

    • @idoghacker8008
      @idoghacker8008  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Some original LeapPad MIDIs are on the page, but not a lot. They can be found here:
      archive.org/download/LF-MIDI-COLLECTION
      Everything after the Leapster 2 used WAVs or compressed audio codecs like OGG or MP3, so no MIDIs will ever show up for those unless the original composers choose to release the project files to their work or someone recreates them from scratch.

      @@paplanner I explained them above as well. Sadly, the only way to ever get MIDIs from those is for the artists to release their work. The Explorers released in 2010 and the handhelds that used MIDI-like music all came out before them.

      Only saying this just in case there's any confusion:
      The purple character here is the Leapster version of Edison - Burfder is more blob-shaped.
