Media: Color Changing Tingle's Love Balloon Trip - Japanese Intro Cinematic & Home Gameplay
September 2, 2009 | 4:45 PM PST

Ah, Tingle... will you ever win?

Probably not, if this intro cinematic for Color Changing Tingle's Love Balloon Trip is any indication:



Fast delivery on that book, though. And that muscular version of Tingle reminds me of someone, but who...?

But is it me, or does the phone number they show at 1:24 look more like a code for a PlayStation game? And I've yet to see an explanation for how televisions (and telephones, apparently) are working in Hyrule.

Next up, we find that Tingle has a rather interesting way of investigating the contents of chests and other items. Moreso than Link, at any rate:



On the other hand, Tingle doesn't get the iconic buildup music that makes finding five Rupees in a box feel like an overstated accomplishment.

I assume by the fact the person making the video entered their name as "GT Troll" that the game is now out in Japan and ready for import, though I've yet to hear anything of a European release. As for North America? Yeah, that will be the day.

But... supposing that it were to make it way to Europe, as Freshly Picked: Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland did. Would you want something like that from Club Nintendo as a prize?
