New release for EU only so far...

The write-up is positive in a "strange but interesting" kind of way.

looks like an awesome game!  lol.

I so want/wanted this... but MUCH to my disappointment, it will NOT be released in Australia.

The "single currency" gameplay (where money is the games objective, also your health, and used to solve puzzles) sounds awesome - and really innovative.

I have the game and after an hours play it seems pretty good, I havnt really got very far as i died and have had to redo about 20minutes of gameplay.

The single currency gameplay is an interesting concept, in rupeeland everyone and everything wants rupees before they will interact with you, which can make situations tricky since your money is also your HP.

The characters are typically zelda styled, their dialogue being fun and interesting, the graphics and sound are perfect too. The gay element of tingle seems to have been toned down a little since Wind Waker, slightly disapointing, wouldnt surprise me if that was unique to the western versions.

Im surprised it got a EU release before the USA, but i guess thats becasue America is getting Zelda before us, both games would probably clash a little.

NOE mailed me with a bulletin that scared the crap out of me with the Tingle art.

shams,
You can still buy it! It's region free.

@ rolstoppable...agreed, nothing to play all Summer then everything comes at once...

Wow...I thought this would be the weirdest, abstract game ever...but it actually sounds accessible and fun...

When I seen pics of the town awhile ago, it made me think of the 2D towns in Zelda II. I love that game. Makes me sorta want Tingle game... but god, I hate him. He made me sad in Majora's Mask...
