talaca Template:Character

Tingle is a thirty-five-year-old man who thinks he is a Fairy and first made his appearance in Majora's Mask. He wears green tights accented with red, and appears in various Legend of Zelda games to help out - usually in bizarre ways. His catchphrase is the supposedly magical word Kooloo-Limpa.

Appearances

Majora's Mask

Tingle's debut portrayed him as the eccentric, estranged son of the Southern Swamp Pictograph contest operator - obsessed with his dream of becoming a fairy. Suspended by a balloon in the air, he uses his vantage point to plot maps of Termina, which Link is able to purchase.

The Wind Waker

In this game, Tingle is called upon using an item called the Tingle Tuner to give Link various forms of help, such as the odd-but-fun hovering power-up called the Tingle Balloon. There are also many side quests involving one that gets you the "Used Tingle Tuner". Tingle also translates Triforce Charts for Link so Link can find the Triforce Shards, at a price of 398 rupees each. He is now obviously an important character, there is even a "Tingle Island" Southwest of Windfall in the game.

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures

In this game, he is seen more of a nuisance than ever. This is also the first time we see his true fascination of force gems. Throughout this entire game, anytime you come in eye contact with a huge force gem outside of dungeons, he will try to steal it as his own and keep it, unless you can shoot him down first. His look is similar to the Tingle in TWW.

The Minish Cap

Tingle and his brothers Ankle, Knuckle, and David Jr. fuse Kinstones with Link and tell him how many Kinstone fusions he has left to complete.

Freshly Picked - Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland

In the second half of 2006, Tingle's first starring game was released for the Nintendo DS in Japan as "Mogitate Tingle no Bara Iro Rupee Land" (translated as "Tingle's Freshly-Picked Rose Colored Rupee Land"). The game explains the story behind Tingle: why he is the way he is, why he loves rupees, and so on.

In the game, you must pay characters in order to do specific tasks. If you pay too little, they will refuse to help - but if you pay too much then you risk running out of rupees very quickly. The game includes some dungeon exploring and fighting, but the fighting takes place in a "cartoon cloud".

So far, there is no word on an American release for the title - although it is being released in Europe on September 14th - but Nintendo of America is running a survey to see whether or not gamers in other countries are interested in the game.

In this game, it is revealed that a man named Uncle Rupee promised to turn Tingle into a fairy if he gathers enough Rupees. Also, if Tingle runs out of Rupees, he dies.

Twilight Princess

Many fans were relieved when they heard that Tingle did not appear in Twilight Princess, and many others were disappointed. But it has been stated that Purlo, the guy who runs the STAR CIRCUS minigame, is a direct reference to Tingle. Aonuma has said that Purlo is what Tingle would look like if he was a realistic character.(Unlike Tingle, Purlo seems to hate Link after he beats his game)

Super Smash Bros. Melee

In this Game Tingle only makes a cameo appearance in the Termina beach level. As with MM you can burst his balloon which acts as a small platform until popped. Upon landing he will do his dance and eventually blow up a new balloon. He also appears as a trophy.

Super Smash Bros Brawl

-It is possible to put on the Giant's Mask elsewhere, using the same [[Fierce_Deity_Mask#Glitches|glitch]] used to wear the [[Fierce Deity Mask]]. However, Link will simply yell as if he's transforming, and the game will lock up.
