New 'Tingle' Game?

Nintendo has been teasing fans with the possiblity of a new game based on Tingle. In case you didn't know, Tingle is a strange, elf-like creature from the Zelda series, mainly for comic relief. However, he has become quite popular with fans, and has even had the game Tingle's Balloon Fight DS released exclusively in Japan.

As of late, a teaser site (seen here) has opened, opening the possibility of a new game. While we don't know if this game would be exclusive to Japan, as the previous one was, or released to the world, we can still begin speculation has to what this game is. Chances are, it will be a DS game - though, with all this hype, it is doubtful it would be a DSiWare game.

In the past, Tingle has been quite a controversial character, so it seems strange of Nintendo to bring him back. Of course, Japan is usually quite more accepting of things like these, thus lending more support to the theory that the game will be released exclusively in Japan.
