Gamespot is right... Skyward Swords controls are bad.

By the way, anyone else have issues with the Wiimote not staying properly calibrated? When I say that I am talking about the pointer not being consistent.

For example, sometimes when I enter the map I can't aim at the center of the screen.

Other times the Wiimote doesn't follow my motions properly. Like when I was flying, I would tilt the Wiimote up, yet my bird wouldn't fly upwards but rather continued going forward or instead decided to descend.

Whenever I have any of these issues I have to recalibrate to get it back to full working order.

I had the same problem, but I don't think it has to do with the Wiimote needing recalibrated.

It doesn't use the IR sensor for pointing. When you go into something that requires pointer aiming, whatever position the Wiimote's in becomes the default "center" position. So if you're pointing directly at the screen it's correctly synched, but if you're holding it at some other angle it's completely off. After I figured that out I stopped having problems. 

I don't know why they decided to do it like that since the IR sensor works fine. Everything else works great though, and I really can't go back to traditional controls now.

This. I have the game and never had to re-calibrate,  just center the pointer when i had my wiimote pointing to anywhere. And if you press down on the D-pad that solves the issue without any problem. For the kart riding, i had to leave the control on a table and turn it there, because i always moved and that made me fall down.

I also didn't have any lag in the game. Some frame drops, but i believed it was my wii since i have to clean it's disc-laser
