This game looks like good fun... It's apparently on the Wii and DS.

Yeah, I've heard about it, and it does look good. It's from Yuji Naka, who worked on the Genesis Sonic games (no, he did NOT create Sonic. That's a myth. He was just the lead programmer on Sonic 1.). Evidently the Wii version is the original, but they couldn't get any publishers to publish it, so they made DS and Windows Phone versions; the Windows Phone version released because they self-published it, and evidently did well enough to get a publisher interested in the DS and Wii versions.

The concept is obviously pretty much Kirby's Canvass Curse, but hey, that game was great so it's pretty cool to see another similar title. Because yes, it definitely looks fun. Simple, but fun.
I would kill myself 30 minutes into that game.. It looks hard as shit.
I think that's some sort of pro level of play, for some sort of time trial. I don't think it represents normal play.
The video title says "superplay" in it, so I think that's a safe assumption.
It seems hard to properly maneuver the wiimote for games like this. Kind of like how it's hard to get 100% accurate paint-brush swoops in the Wii version of Okami.
