#caketaku Holy crap. Kotaku reader Will Turnbow and his wife made this cake for their daughter's tenth birthday, and I think it's no exaggeration to say this is the coolest thing you'll see today. More »

#zelda I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that lately, "Fi's Theme" from Skyward Sword has sort of become my favorite piece of Zelda music. But I very much enjoyed this. More »

#zelda Artist Tom Kyster wanted to paint a picture of Skyward Sword's Silent Realm Guardians for a recent Zelda art show. Sadly, he missed the deadline. Happily, he finished the piece anyway and sent it over, because it's pretty damn good. More »

Maya has really been enjoying The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Her father, developer Mike Hoye, says she likes "sailing, scary birds and remembering to be brave," much like Link, the game's protagonist. But girls can go on adventures and rescue their little brothers, too!

To emphasize that, Hoyes altered the game's disk image with a hex editor, changing all of the dialogue references about Link's gender to be feminine. Since all the alternatives had to be exactly the same byte-for-byte length, he used "swordsmain" for "swordsman," and "milady" in place of "my lad" and "master." He's provided a patch for the disk image, which you can then load up in a GameCube emulator to play.

The end result of all this hacking is that a little girl gets to see herself as the hero, and find the courage to defeat Ganon in her own little heart. And that makes us feel, just, you know, so ... What? No, we're not crying! Call of Duty, bro! Go have a look at the Wii U pictures again.

When we were kids, we had to walk ten feet in the snow to get to school. We also had to play with boring, non-Zelda LEGOs. Okay, so that first part is a lie, but the second part is completely true - and it's tragic, right? But if one man's noble mission proves successful, future generations of Hylians will never have to pretend they're playing with a blockhead version of Link and Zelda like we did. They'll be able to score the real deal instead...

Behind every legendary warrior is some guy with a Wiimote, desperately trying to perform a shield bash. Unless, of course, live-action video game pantomime is "not [your] lifestyle."

The boxart no longer features the blurb about the included audio CD, seeing as how that was for the first-run only.
