Alphabet Park Adventure is a platformer game released from 2004 to 2007, and was published by VTech. and under license from Zamperla Amusments inc

This was one of the pack in titles for the V.Smile
This is one of the most well known games on the V.Smile
The original version uses prerendered images for things like the Titlescreen, cutscenes, and possibly the characters.
French version of this game's box uses an image of the prerelease console which is barely visible on the box itself
The game had it's characters redesigned to be the newly introduced characters from V.Tech. This has happened to other games.
These characters may have had it's earliest appearance be on the V.Smile game "Learnin' Wheels" (or maybe "Whiz Kid Wheels").
Those characters also had appetences in other games such as Smart Keyboard.
The Chinese version may have taught English to the Chinese market judging by the game being known as English Parade over there.
This game has rare artwork depicting the boy looking at the distance to a structure with some letters falling from the sky in the same way as the Learning Zone minigame "Letter Order".
This image also shows a dog/cat character standing next to the kid who outside of this image is never seen, or mentioned at all.
The cartridge in the console shows what seems to be a rendition of the park's layout on the stage select screen.

The V.Smile (stylized as V.SMILE TV LEARNING SYSTEM) is a sixthgeneration educational home video game console manufactured and released by VTech. Titles are available on ROM cartridges called "Smartridges", to play off the system's educational nature. The graphics are primarily spritebased. The console is often sold bundled with a particular game, with most of them having a game called Alphabet Park Adventure. Several variants of the V.Smile console are sold including handheld versions, or models with added functionality such as touch tablet integrated controllers or microphones. The VMotion is a major variant with its own software lineup that includes motion sensitive controllers and has Smartriges designed to take advantage of motionrelated "active learning". The VMotion and Smartridges however are fully backwards compatible with other V.Smile variants and V.Smile Smartridges, and a VMotion Smartridge can also be played on V.Smile console or handheld, albeit with limited functionality. However, in 2010, the new and old models of the V.Smile were discontinued. VTech still made games for the V.Smile until at least 2012.

Several versions of V.Smile and VMotion consoles and handhelds have continued to be sold after newer models are introduced, allowing consumers a wide variety of consoles to choose from (frequently offered in an alternative pink color scheme) without worrying about a lack of backwards compatibility between games or consoles. Some key differentiators between systems and the ability to fully utilize all game functions include the options of a microphone, touch tablet, additional joystick port (for 2player gameplay), stylusenhanced controller, or motion sensitive game pad (with VMotion).
