My son received cash for Christmas and couldn't wait to spend it ordering this launcher online. It was delivered very quickly (thank goodness). My son was nearly in tears after playing with it for only a few hours. It is already broken! He is very disappointed in the quality of this product, as well as the fact that it was so expensive. I would caution you that this launcher is basically just for looks. It is not meant to be used.
My sons traded in his ds games in order to purchase this and although i tried to discourage him based on the exsiting reviews he had his mind set. Please do not let your kids buy this. My son takes well care of his stuff and this thing is already broken. What a shame to spend over $50.00 for an item that is a piece of garbage.
This product is horrible. I bought it for both my kids ON THE SAME DAY and BOTH rippers both within a week. My kids are great with their toys. I'm extremely disapp ointed.
