found this:  Eiji Aonuma On Motion Controls, Zelda 3DS & WiiU

GR: So do you think you'll continue to use motion control in the future? Will you ever go back to traditional controls?

EA: I don't think we could go back to button control, especially after creating something that's as natural to use as the interface that we have with the Wii Remote Plus in Skyward Sword. I think Nintendo will continue to have that focus on motion control and we'll see that continue to evolve. And the hardware as well, in a way that will let people control things very naturally just using their own motions.

GR: Is there any particular feature of the Wii U hardware that you're excited to work with?

 

EA: Obviously, it's the new controller that's got the screen built into it, and in particular we're looking at how we can combine that new controller with something like motion control, and perhaps use the new controller in such a way that it becomes a new item that you're able to use to make the game feel fresh and new.

Oh god...

The good news is that Miyamoto has since countered that mindset:

"With the last game, Skyward Sword, that was a game where you had motion control to use your weapons and a lot of different items," explained the creator of the series. "And I thought that was a lot of fun, but there were some people who weren’t able to do that or didn’t like it as much and stopped playing partway through it. So we’re in the phase where we’re looking back at what’s worked very well and what has been missing and how can we evolve it further."

That's what Zelda needs. Evolution, not redefining. Hopefully Miyamoto keeps an eye on the development, because the Wii U can't afford a Skyward Sword right now (an experimental game can come at the end of the gen, right now they need to be conservative in the development).
