the whole game is based around haggling and it has made me hate the concept of money more than even losing at monopoly can (another essential communist game)

Goddarn, that game is unplayable without a guide! Pay too little, you get screwed, pay too much, you get fecked! I gave up, but you are absolutely correct in that the game is absolutely anti-capitalist. Maybe too much, as I described earlier, because one does not want to play it! All in all, you are absolutely right!
Now, if you want a fun monetary Tingle game, try Irozuki Tingle no Koi no Balloon Trip. It has an excellent fan translation nowadays!
the frustrating part is that it could have been a fun game with just like... a handful of changes. it's mainly just having to guess how much rupees everything is worth that makes it such a wretched experience. that, and having to tap on all the ingredients in the pot
i actually have a ds cartridge of tingle's balloon trip of love (fan translated, bought from etsy, i think?), so i'll definitely check that out later!
Excellent...do post your opinion on Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love when you beat it, if you want, we can have a good agreement session on the different endings, and of course, the game itself.
