I dunno what reviews you've been reading DJ but everything about Zelda's use of the wiimote has gotten praise save for a slight lag or a hyper-sensitivity that was officially said to be fixed or customizable in the final version.
The most negative reviews i've seen are from people who said that in their 5 minute demo of game X they couldn't get the controls down, while other reviewers (arguably reviewers who play more games) said that it felt second nature almost instantly. We have some saying "it's too delicate, too sensitive" which Nintendo (and other companies) mentioned that sensitivity and personal preferences of control scheme, TV type and size, distance from TV, etc will be saved the first time you turn on Wii and adjust the calibration of the wiimote and can be adjusted in-game just as you would turn the sensitivity of the anal sticks up or down in a FPS.
The wiimote quite simply does more; it's the superior controller. Just the fishing demo alone should make you realize that the wiimote is the way to go. Of course we know very little about the game and how moves are performed at this point, but i'm willing to bet the wiimote will be the better version if just because Nintendo is putting more time and effort in to it, as well as from a marketing viewpoint and the fact that their ass is on the line, not the horrible uncontrolable mess you're making it out to be.
