Flashpad 3.0 electronic game...ordered 2...exchanged due to problems...still having problems???

I ordered two of the Flashpad 3.0 handheld electronic games for my sons for Christmas. After working great for a few days, the unit got into a "hung up" mode...you'd press the buttons and it wouldn't register that the button had been pushed. When playing the "Chase Me" game, it would also say you'd hit a button even if you hadn't...others would watch as we were playing to make sure. BOTH units ended up doing the same thing. I returned them for an exchange. Well, one of the units has started doing the same thing again. It's not quite as much, but it does happen. In the original units, we even changed the batteries thinking it was that....not so.

My family loves the game, but I wonder if anyone else has had problems with yours? I wonder if they have ended up making so many, that the quality has gone down. I know this game is supposedly very popular. I probably won't return these again, but I will call CS to let them know that these units are not performing as well as expected either.

Any thoughts?
