Nintendo just dropped an absolute bombshell during their Nintendo Direct conference by announcing that they will be re-releasing The Legend of Zelda: The Windwaker in an updated HD format for the Wii U.

During the conference several HD screenshots of Windfall Island were shown off as well as a HD version of Link and Zelda. Nintendo President Satoru Iwata commented that they chose to re-release Windwaker due to the fact that they believe that not many people got a chance to play this title due to the small install base of the Gamecube and made the decision to release it to a greater audience on the Wii U.

Nintendo revealed several images of the game, including the one you can see above. They chose to show off Windwaker HD due to the fact that a brand new Zelda title is still a fair way off.

The game was revealed to be hitting stores in Fall 2013 Worldwide. What do you think of Windwaker HD coming to the Wii U? Let us know in the comments section below.

‘Brace For Impact’ as we have a nice behind-the-scenes featurette for the movie Flight, starring Denzel Washington. The film releases in Australia on January 31st, and you can read our review right now.

The video focuses around the shooting of the much talked about plane crash sequence, and it gives a lot of insight within it’s paltry 2:32 length. Anyone who is interested in film-making or just the film itself should definitely check it out. It features the legendary director Robert Zemeckis, Denzel Washington and many other members of the production speaking on the scene and how it was achieved as you get to take a look at the complicated rigging that made the realistic, upside down moments in the cabin/cockpit possible. That video can be viewed at the bottom of this article.

Before that though, we also have a new clip from the film, called “Life In Prison”. It is a pivotal moment in the film where Denzel’s character, the pilot “Whip” Whitaker, is told that he had a toxicology report done on him while he was knocked out in the hospital…and, well, things begin to unravel for Mr. Whitaker. Watch it directly below.

“Life In Prison” – Official Clip

Every now and then rumours arise about supposed banned episodes of TV, some of which forever exist as a myth never to see the light of day. Dexter’s Laboratory fans however are in for a treat as one such banned or ‘lost’ episode has been uncovered after more than a decade since its creation.

The episode is titled ‘Rude Removal’ and focuses on Dexter inventing a machine that splits a person into a good and bad side, essentially splitting them into two different people. ‘Rude Removal’ never made it to air for a pretty simple reason, it features excessive swearing throughout although it was beeped out. Despite the beeping Cartoon Network saw it to be not suitable for children and pulled the plug on it.

You can check out the episode now below. Be sure to let us know what you think of this bizarre episode in the comments section below.
