Yes, it looks like a lot of fun, provided you can get into the weird vibe.

Got a good Famitsu review too. 8s and 9s.

Will probably pick it up for the better half.

Tingle is the support-by-GBA character from The Legend of Zelda: Windwaker, isn't he?

Really odd concept by the look of it. Maybe not right for me, but still an interesting looking title.

Still though,....weird.

Yeah. There are Zelda references in this too, such as the 'unlocked secret/puzzle solved' jingle that you can hear in the promo video.

The objective of the game is to earn Rupees any way you can, then throw them into the magic well, which makes that totem pole type thing extend further into the sky so that Tingle can get to paradise.

Apparently you have to haggle/barter/negotiate with the various characters for the amount of Rupees you will get upon completing tasks, and depending on how this goes can mean a big gain or a big loss.

I would buy it if it made it to the USA. I do import a lot but this is something that I wouldn't.

Tingle is the man. An awfully gay man, but the man nonetheless.

Hopefully some of his buddies like "Chris" are in it!

Seriously considering importing this game. Has anyone tried it yet? I think this has a chance to be a sleeper hit on the DS (I called it with Ouendan so I think I got it right again with this one possibly).

Sales are good in Japan. It will break 100,000 units soon.

I got it for the better half today. I'll let you know what she thinks of it.

GameBrink gave this game a good review as well. Sounded like it was fairly import friendly. I am still going to pass unless it makes it to the USA.

Its getting good reviews but I can't get past the odd feeling it gives off.

Well I ordered it from play-asia. I will let you know what I think. The Zelda fan in me just wouldn't let me pass it by.
