I think he can and should for several reasons:
-He's the most (not going to use popularity here, because it's not just strictly that) INFAMOUS Zelda character besides the Triforce 3. Ever since his appearence in MM, he's made one in every Zelda game henceforth (except in a Zelda GBA PORT and TP, but even in that he was given a character to represent and resemble him), and even spawn two of his own games. One has to admit that no matter how heated anyone feels about him, there will always be a perverse attarction to his character. No other Zelda character (besides T3) are more recognized, and that is important to an all star roster where every character should stand out as unique in some shape or form.
-He has a balloon. And a Balloon fighter game. So? you may ask. So, think about it, does Balloon Fighter have as much potential as regualr Brawlers do to be given a role in this game? Does he have enough moveset potwntial? Not very, and popularity is strictly tied down to just his game and not his character. But Tingle on the other hand has a pretty fair moveset potential AND can fill some of the roles BF would have, which would satisfy people who desired a Ballooon Fighter inclusion of some sort.
-The LoZ deserves at LEAST four character slots, as Pokemon is undoubtably getting that number at the minimum also, and next to that and Mario (which is likely getting 5), is Nintendo's flagship series. SO, we know at the very least the Trifoce 3 are getting the first slots and Young Link is almost undoubtably getting the boot. WHo would fill the fourth slot? Many people argue Vaati, Midna, etc but mainly out of personal perference. Think about it though, who is more fit to represent the LoZ series as the last character, minorish characters and few time villains who only have a few appearences (sometimes 1 in some cases like Midna) in teh series as a whole, or the next most recognizable character besides Link, Zelda and Ganon? Tinkle's appearences as mentioned has thus far encompassed the whole series, so his significance to the feel and taste of the series is very obvious.
There's very few other reasons I'd see him not being a playable besides size/character quota issues, and as an AT he just would seem very limited (I mean a Hammer Bro, all he can really do is throw hammers but Tingle's proven that he's capable of doing many other ridiculous and amazing things.)
