''Freshly-Picked: Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland'' is a quirky little game for the DS, starring [[The Legend of Zelda (Franchise)/Characters|Tingle]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Franchise)|The Legend of Zelda]]''. In it, Tingle is an [[Blatant Lies|ordinary]] 35-year old man living in what may or may not be Hyrule. One day, a mysterious Rupee-shaped character promises him entrance to [[The Promised Land|Rupeeland]] if he collects enough Rupees, and changes his name to Tingle, giving him his classic green suit.
 
Despite being generally well-received, it was only released in [[Japan]] and [[Europe]] because [[Americans Hate Tingle]]. (If you want to play it, import it- it's region-free!) It received a sequel, ''Color-Changing: Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love'', which revolved around women instead of money, but this was never released outside of Japan. There was also a ''Balloon Fight'' [[Dolled-Up Installment|Clone]]-[[Spin-Off]] featuring Tingle released prior to both games.

=== This game contains examples of: ===
 
* [[Aliens Steal Cattle]] - Aliens had abducted the cows of Lon Lon Meadow and brought them back (a possible reference to ''[[Majoras Mask|Majora's Mask]]''). The cows Tingle encounters all sport purple alien heads.
Line 26:
** [[Gaia's Lament]]: The Deku Tree.
* [[Death Mountain]] - Mount Desma
{{quote| '''Old book:''' Mount Desma is also known as the Mountain of Death.}}
* [[Do You Want to Haggle?]] - You're not gonna get through this game if you have no feel for it (or a guide).
* [[Elemental Powers]] - The ''[[Super Sentai]]''-ish fairy squad corresponds to the elements of Metal, Aqua, Leaf, Earth and Magma. There's also a collection of Super Rupees based on these elements.
Line 39:
* [[Guide Dang It]] - A frustrating example would be the phases where you have to pay NPCs or vice versa. Another would be finding the recipe for Tasty Stew
* [[Happily Adopted]] - Aba by Junglo. When Aba reunites and goes to live with her biological father, she and Junglo have a short, but heartwarming goodbye.
{{quote| '''Aba:''' Bye, Forest Dad!}}
* [[Hello, Insert Name Here]] - Played with: You can name the protagonist everything except Tingle, because that's the name he'll be given less than five minutes into the game. There's a few special NPCs that call you your real (i.e. your chosen) name.
* [[Item Get]] - Yep, Tingle does it too.
Line 57:
* [[No Export for You]]: Not released in America
* {{spoiler|[[Obviously Evil]] - Uncle Rupee, who tells Tingle that throwing rupees into the pond will grant a life of luxury and comfort, isn't that clearly the villain when you first meet him. By the second story-proceeding donation though, you'll notice that Uncle Rupee's living more luxurious than when you met him.}}
* [[Only in It For Thethe Money]] - Tingle, with the sidenote money doubles as his life energy. So is everyone else, because they're all greedy.
* [[Our Fairies Are Different]] - They're the spirirts of altruism and generosity, or simply the anti-Uncle Rupee(s).
* [[Palette Swap]] - The regular Bodyguards. There is a set of nine sprites per continent, so each continent utilizes different colours to set their Bodyguards apart.
* [[Pink Girl, Blue Boy]] - [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|Pinkle]]. Duko too, but that one might be for parody purposes.
* [[Playboy Bunny]] - One of Uncle Rupee's servants during the final fight.
* [[The Power of Love]] - That which enables the Guard to thwart the evil lurking in the cemetary and save his wife.
Line 68:
* [[Self-Made Man]] - Tingle upon getting the good ending
* [[Sequential Boss]] - Uncle Rupee has a normal form, a green powered up form, an orange powered up form, a red powered up form and finally a giant rupee head form.
* [[Shout-Out]] - A few locations in the game are homages to ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Franchise)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' (Deku Forest, Lon Lon Meadows, Desma Mountain), and the Salona also look a lot like the Subrosians. One of the boss battles is also a parody of [[Punch -Out!!]].
* [[Snowed In]] - Getting the recipe for Ultra Sleep Spray involves finding the remains of an adventurer who couldn't leave his secluded spot because of the snow storms. Poor guy had to cook with what he had and never woke up...
* [[Spikes of Doom]] - Particularly bad in the Insect Cavern
Line 80:
* [[Unwitting Pawn]] - Tingle
* [[Vendor Trash]]: Nearly every item is this. This is a good thing, however, due to the game's premise.
* [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made Onon Drugs?]] - A lot. Notably, you have to actually buy the staff credit list in the game, or it won't show at the end of the game.
