We have tried to do the same thing on a Video/DVD combi and failed! We are looking to buy a cheapy dvd player but how do I know if the console will work on the cheapy one? The codes are not model specific so any ideas would be welcome. Or have you got a cheapy dvd player rigged up with the console? If so where did you get your dvd player from? Thanks a million .

I sent the bubble makers an email and they said they haven't been tested on TV/DVD combo's...At the moment it's still on my daughters PS2 and my son is using it more without the DVD for now..Our dvd player isn't working in the livivng room so I will have to buy a new one anyway but I didn't want my son playing it in the living room as I wanted him to use it in the playroom...I will get a cheap dvd player that has a code available from the list provided..
Sorry for the long essay ha ha:rotfl:

If you look at the back of the booklet of manual codes, there is a list of bubble tested dvd players with model numbers. Might be worth googling a few of them to see if you can find a cheapy.

Aldi have a DVD for £19.99 on 2 nov that might work as tevion is in their list of dvd codes.

Dear rizla01. They are not selling any of the games separately. Sorry for taking so long to get back to tou.

One thing knowbody here really mentions is that the Bubble system isn't really that great, compared to the Interact TV which is much better, although the only real problem with this is that its all American, so can confuse the little ones with some of the sayings/wordings. I have both systems, and although both have issues, the Bubble games just too boring whereas the Interac TV keeps most kids awake.

Hi not heard of that system, where can you get it and how much?
I've also got the leap frog baby touch and leap pad, also his uncle got him the vtech baby console thing. The only reason I got the bubble was for thomas and tubbies as that's what my son loves. My husband says the bubble is just a fancy dvd remote )

Saw these yesterday at Taylor's in Liverpool City Centre. The console was £14.99 which included Thomas Tank Game. You also got a separate free Fimbles game with every console purchased.
They had one plugged into a tv as a demo. Wasn't impressed enough to buy one. Excellent price if you want one though.

Contacted BanDai to ask if any further titles will be released...
"The manufacturers have informed us that they are leaving the pre-school market so will not be releasing any new games now, we have therefore decided to discontinue the Bubble at the end of this year, as we will not be able to obtain any more stock, so there are only 6 games available I'm afraid."

Have a browse on ebay, I had the same reason for buying a Bubble for Thomas and Tubbies also, but still think Dora on Interact TV is excellent, even for the adults to watch/play!.
