Horror game with Tingle WAS in the making | General News | NintendoReporters

 [![Horror game with Tingle WAS in the making](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/horror-game-met-tingle-was-in-de-maak.png "Horror game with Tingle WAS in the making")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/horror-game-met-tingle-was-in-de-maak.png)Nintendo Producer **Kensuke Tanabe** has brought out remarkable news during an interview with **Kotaku**. The producer told Kotaku that a time has gone into working on a horror game with none other than Tingle, a cult character from the Zelda series, in the lead.

In the end, the game never appeared for various reasons. Unfortunately, it was not indicated for which console this game would have been released.

The game was under development at the studio Vanpool, which also made the game Freshly-Picked Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland for the Nintendo DS. So they already had experience with Tingle. We therefore expect that this horror game for the DS or the Nintendo 3DS would have been intended.

The horrrorr, the hay roar …

Would you like a horror show with Tingle in the lead? Anyway, do you think that Tingle is well used by Nintendo?
