A few weeks ago I heard that Nintendo was putting in a better battery for the Wii U gamepad but cannot seem to find it. Will this be happening? If so, will it for the Wind Waker bundle release?

I hope so. The gamepad battery wouldn't be a problem for me if the gamepad didn't have to stay on for EVERY SINGLE GAME. I never have used the gamepad to play a game on the Wii U yet. (I have tried using it, but I use my Pro Controller and Wiimote for everything.) It's annoying to have to have the gamepad on while not using it... Yes, you can turn off the display, but it is still on.
Sorry for my rant. (But if there is a way of having it off while having the Wii U on, please do tell me )

I'm sure they'll bring this stuff over here. I don't see why they wouldn't. It's already basically confirmed that the Wii remote batteries will be released outside of Japan, so I don't see why they wouldn't for the GamePad.
EDIT: BTW, I rarely run out of battery. When ever I'm not using it, I just place it on the charge stand real quick, even if my Wii U is left on. 10-20 minutes here and there keeps it up, but the better battery would be nice. I would never run out.
I can't see anyone playing for more than 7 hours without thinking about charging it for next time.
I am really looking forward to this arriving here as it would be useful to me, I forget to charge it between gaming sessions so it would be a great relief if it comes over here!
I am an avid monster hunter player that started quite recently on Ultimate, (Blue Rath Armor currently) the gameplay just keeps me coming back for more!

Yeah, honestly the battery isn't that much of an issue for me either, I just leave it on the stand. (Unless if its Pikmin 3 or Rayman Legends at the moment) And if it does get low the charging cord is like...right there. xD
Anyways if they do sell this battery, will it work with the current GamePad? >.>

Ya, it's just a battery. It would be like putting Energizer MAX AAs into your AA device instead of regular Energizer batteries.
The battery is the only thing that's different.

Good. I was worrying about that.

Yeah, kinda figured it would be a different size or something.

So nobody knows if the bundle will have it? sigh Not sure what to do. Sure I want the bundle for that awesome gamepad and I do not have a Wii U yet and the price will not drop again for a while BUT honestly I am very disappointed because I wanted to get the Wind Waker HD with the Ganondorf figurine yesterday but no more are left which was my plan. I like the physical game so I was going to sell the codes on eBay to not waste the digital game and Hyrule Historia so my incentive really dropped.

@One-Winged-Pit Well for me, I wouldn't be able to wait because Wind Waker HD, but to each his own. Either way, I'm sure it will mention it on the bundle package if it does have it.

Code? What code?

The Wind Waker HD bundle is a good deal, especially with the Zelda book. I didn't know it came with that...
Anyway, the battery COULD be included, but there's no saying for sure. The game looks to be a code that will come in a similar fashion as the ZombiU bundle did for Nintendo Land.
EDIT: Oh, I thought the Zelda book was actually a book. It's just digital. Still nice, though.
