There's a ton of control options in Mario Kart. I believe the nunchuk is confirmed, and I'm guessing the motorcycles are controlled with Wiimote alone, handlebar style.
Its a great idea. People not used to analog sticks can use the wheel or the motorcycles with their "real world" motions and play against Mario Kart veterans, without having to buy anything extra. I think that's awesome.
