The silly little elf almost got his time in the spotlight.... Almost.

Tingle, the odd little elf who has appeared in a number of Zelda games, was considered for inclusion in Hyrule Warriors as a playable character.

"Actually, Tingle was a character we kind of considered and sort of went back and forth on," Koei Tecmo producer Yosuke Hayashi explained. "We really wanted to include him but Mr. Aonuma suggested that it might be good to include some other character."

Do you think it was a wise choice not to include Tingle? Would you like to see him have a role in the upcoming Zelda game for Wii U?

Tingle would have been deadly on the battlefield. He would of pissed off his enemies to death in mere minutes.

She had her fans... in Japan.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Who the tits would actually want to play as him? I think it was a good idea to leave him out
