Yes, you "need to have fun", as ABF said :D. Admittedly the motion controls are a bit tacked on, but I had a great time. I honestly loved the game from start to finish and felt the latter half was even better than the first.
As to which version, every single person I know got the Wii version because we all just HAD to get the Wii (ahhh hype machines...). One other detail, the ENTIRE UNIVERSE is mirrored in the Wii game. The official reason is to make Link right-handed, but... mirroring the entire game wasn't really needed to accomplish that. Plus, the Wii controller's unique setup means that it really doesn't matter which hand you hold it in. Why not just have the USER switch which hand they hold each controller in? Even better, ASK the user if they are left or right handed at the start. Oh well, it doesn't really affect too much unless you go from one version to the other and get lost, I'd imagine.
I'd recommend the Wii version if only because I had fun with the controls and the game is smoother on it.
To ABF: I'm just at a loss as to how you can view the story as stupid or sexist. It's one of the better stories in a Zelda game in a long time with a lot of interesting revelations and good characterization, and there's plenty of "strong female" characters in the game.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
