Default Tingle DS - PAL/JAP exclusive - Request thread
Tingle DS is a quirky game released in Europe and Japan but not North America. It's quite rare here in Europe so I'm willing to offer to try and find you US. Members a copy if you like.

Already got Jogurt and Pdrydia a copy of the game

Payment once I manage to find a copy of the game would have to be via paypal.

I also would love to have a copy for my sister.

Just to make sure, this is the Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland game?

The game seems to have dried up in England since I got my dirt cheap £7.99 new copy a few years ago so nice to know someone has been able to track some down for the VCFers.

I have seen a copy in Sweden but...well as you can imagine it wasn't exactly competetively priced.

The game is fantastic though so people should take Ouenben up on his offer if he's able to get ahold of some copies.

Would it be possible for me to get a copy or has your supply run dry/you are unable to for whatever reason?

Equally if anyone wants one for £7.99 plus postage I saw one in my local HMV secondhand that I can nab until tomorrow provided I get a nod.

I actually wouldn't mind getting in on this, if you have another copy for sale.

What is the game? Like, how does it play? I'd be interested in picking up a copy too, if only because it's not avalaible in the US.

I received the game today. On an unreleated note I had no idea that Q-Bert lived in Scotland.

It plays very similarly to a top down Zelda title, except that the battle mechanic is reliant on having Rupees which basically constitute Tingle's life/energy. Bodyguards can be hired to fight alongside you but like everything else in the game they come at a price.
Storywise the game is both exceptionally dark and gratifyingly camp and as a satire on greed and avarice is one of the best pieces of videogame storytelling in years.

If anyone (Ouenben, Betagam7 or whoever) finds another copy they want to sell, I'd appreciate it if they say so when they do.
