That's a remake made for Japan's Nintendo Power club (or something like it, "GO! Nintendo" I think it was), so it more of a joke game. Besides, Tingle has his own RPG on the DS (before Tingle's Balloon Fight), so they can take everything from there.
i know, i'm just saying, whatever balloon fighter can do, tingle can also, and they almost had balloon fighter

The minute Tingle hits the screen, I would throw the Wii out the window.
Why? Is one character you happen to not like in one game that you do like really that big a deal in your life? Wow. That's kinda sad.

XD Watch Tingle end up top tier and then see everybody on this site do a simultaneous 180 on their opinion. And then HT will laugh. =P

Tingle's got "issues." If he somehow, someway, makes it into Brawl it will be strictly to provide comic relief. I wouldn't play as him though even if someone threatened my life!

Actually, Tingle's inclusion would be more fanservice than anything. Remember, he's huge in Japan. And Smash is a Japanese game first. So if he gets in, it's because people want him in.

I can't wait to main Tingle just to see the looks on everyone elses faces. XD

I imagine Tingle would be comedic in his fighting. G&W made some of us laugh because of quirkiness, whereas Tingle would be a character made to laugh at on purpose. Or try to make us laugh, there is no gaurantee he will be "LOL" funny if he makes it in, or if he makes it in at all for that matter.

I don't mean to be rude, but I hate that. It just bothers me anytime somebody goes into a topic, says no to the idea for no apparant reason, then just arbitrarily starts talking about a completely unrelated character.

FANS!? I didn't knew he has...

But Tingle is popular in Japan only, so... I wouldn't expect to see him in Brawl.
in japan onlY? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

im a fan of tingle, i think that tingle has much more of a chance than the happy mask salesman guy will probably ever have!

none taken, but the guy who made this topic could've made a cooler moveset than what he tried to provide for us.

Tingle...

One of the most hated Zelda characters in America.

But here's fairly popular in Japan, I hear. And he's got his own game.

I say he's got a chance.

Doubt it, Vaati and Midna are more likely.


Yeah here, at Smashboards at GameFAQs he isn't that popular.
...Really? I could have swore I've seen dozens of people saying he's the most likely character to be in Brawl!

GameFAQ, I wouldn't be surprised, though.

I don't want to sound like a jerk, but I think those people are most likely supporters who said this just because they support Skull Kid.
What purposes might his inclusion serve anyway that could get him in over Vaati, Midna and Tingle?

* Vaati is the only recurring major villain other than Ganon and he has been in three games. He also seems to be quite a popular suggestion.
* Midna is a popular character and while she has only been in one game, the game is the most recent mainstream Zelda title and she's THE central character in its events.
* Tingle has been in almost every Zelda game (TP is the exception) since Majora's Mask and he has also starred in his own game. Despite the fact that many seem to dislike him outside of Japan, he has a good chance of appearing in Brawl.

I'd say they all have chances above Skull Kid's.
Skull Kid had an important role in one game (although not as important as Midna's in TP) that isn't exactly a recent title and he isn't all that popular. He would probably have been a more popular character if you ever actually fought the guy, but as it is right now, most of his support comes because of his looks.

ok, I have to get this off my chest: I HATE Midna. I absolutely despise her and I will be dissapointed if she's in Brawl.

I like Tingle as a character, but he seems a little minor to be a character. Now the Happy Mask Salesman (a side character in Ocarina, and major character in Majora) or the Skull Kid (main character in Majora) might stand more of a chance.

i think tingle would be interesting, but balloon fighter plays very similar and he has more of a fanbase and a chance

I've been thinking and I realized that in the off chance Tingle does appear it will be to rep his games and not the Zelda franchise because he is a side character in all of the Zelda games but in his own games he is the main character.

The only similarity between Tingle and Balloon fighter is that Tingle also can float with Balloons if he needs to. Other than the fact that they both have balloons, there is nothing similar about them.

...Tingle's Balloon fight doesn't count, though. >_>

I think it would be the equivalent of an entire Star Wars movie based around JarJar Binks.

I also don't want too many floater-characters.
This sums it up, except the SSB series already has somewat of a JarJar Binks (Pichu=not many like it).

Tingle has the exact same chance that master cheif does: NONE!

To heck with Tingle, he wastes a SSB slot that could be taken by a GOOD character, he takes a LOZ spot that Zant or Shiek could have, and Ballon Fight would own him! To heck with Tingle, he sucks, and he has no chance watsoever to be in SSBB!

He's a not a minor character to the LOZ franchise, but he isn't a main or big character. He is just someone who makes everyone go huh?, wat?, wtf?, or laugh randomly, and that is all he is useful for.

Idc if you make a good moveset for him, this pic sums up just how cool he is, and why he'll never be a playable character in the SSB series ever! Idc how few ideas Sakurai and his team have, this should never be considered. This pic sums up how I feel about Tingle.

Yes, because Photoshopped hate images really affect his chances, ESPECIALLY if we have to make a good moveset first.

Yeah, one of the most recurring characters in one of Nintendo's biggest franchises, and the only Zelda character to ever receive his own spin-off game has absolutely no chance of showing up because some moronic noob photoshopped him in a dress. Listen, kid, just because you dont' like him doesn't lower his chances at all. The fact of the matter is that Tingle is an extremely popular character, regardless of how big you make the text screaming you don't like him. He has his own game. He has the recognition. He has a gigantic fanbase. He has a recurring role in the franchise he originated in. Hmm... sound familiar, anyone?

I wouldn't compare Tingle with Diddy, I think Diddy has a bigger role in the DK franchise than Tingle does in the Zelda franchise

I completley Agree with you .


and Diddy is a more major character than Tingle...

Where I was trying to go with that point is that everything that can be said to cast support on Diddy can also hold true for Tingle.

Diddy has a recurring role in a major Nintendo franchise. So does Tingle.
Diddy has a very large fanbase. So does Tingle.
Diddy has instant recognition on his side. So does Tingle.
Diddy has his own game. So does Tingle.

You see? I wasn't exactly trying to compare the two, just point out that the reasons for their inclusions are very similar.

tingle is a great character in my opinion...to prove it i'll do a moveset right now!!! :devil: ...now with tingle's magic words i can make one apear..."tingle ,tingle,koo-loo Limpa! (those aren't spelled right but i'll pretend they work... :lol:
Quick moveset:
B: throw map (s) damage: 4% ...tingle can trow up to 5 at a time and the green map causes 10% the each cause the opponent to sorta lose balance and fall (at high %s) and in the air the opponent will seem to get heavy and fall these will be used for irratating attemps so you can use a combo attack (they will hurt like a fan and bounce the opponent and kinda make them turn around

up+B: ...balloon float (you guessed right) people can climb on the ballon but cannot pop balloon
->+B: map bat tingle spins and hits opponent with map but continues spinning ( like ice climbers)
down+B:...i cant think...BYE!!!...wait...maybe he uses his magic words and ...( like jigly's rest) makes the smash noise as in like te home run bat... almost always an instant ko...


END OF MOST CRAPPY MOVESET I'VE EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!!! (and ever made)

Uh, sorry, but Shiek is already in the game. And Zant was in one game, a game which if you finished it, you discovered that Zant is actually a whiny n00b that looks like squidward instead of the creepy badass he is at the beginning. At least Nintendo doesn't try to hide that Tingle is a weirdo. The only similarity that tingle and Baloon Fighter have is Balloons. Balloon Fighter would be cool, but Tingle would be cooler. Tingle has bombs, magic, and balloons. Balloon Fighter has balloons. And if you're gonna play the "too obscure" card, Waluigi is in your signature.
Tingle has been in every Zelda Game since Majora's Mask. Waluigi has only been in sports games.
Tingle has his own game. Waluigi doesn't.
Tingle has a huge fanbase in Japan and abroad. Waluigi is hated by nearly everyone.

Personally, I love Tingle and Waluigi both. They are oddball characters in two franchises full of stereotypes. But I think Tingle deserves double the chance Waluigi does, and we don't want your Transy Porno on this thread.
