Picture the scene: You’ve got the producer of the Zelda series, Eiji Aonuma, on the phone. He’s given you the rights to the beloved NPC, Tingle, as well as god-like powers that allow you to alter any game in existence. Of course, there’s only one thing left to do now, right? It’s time to cause as much havoc as possible!

You finally defeat Bowser at the end of… well… any Mario game. You see the princess float down towards you in her signature pink dress. Except, this isn’t Peach. No, instead your reward for completing the game is a peck on the cheek from the 35 year old fairy-man. Worth it? Absolutely.

Or perhaps you’d stay closer to home. Having completed all the dungeons and collected all of the Medallions in Ocarina of Time, you finally rendezvous with Sheik in the Temple of Time. He speaks to you for a short time, before finally revealing his true identity. Yes, it was the balloon and tights enthusiast all along! Who could possibly have seen this coming?

Of course, these examples are all fairly close to home. If you had the divine (and, let’s be honest, highly desirable) power to replace any video game character with Tingle, where and when would you choose? Let us know in the comments below!
