Guys, you're supposed to hold the Wii Remote, not squeeze the ever-loving shit out of it. :P
Seriously, I've never had any problems with anything digging into my hand. The whole thing is rounded except for the top, which you don't grip. What digs?
For everyone saying a D-Pad is useless, you don't play many fighting games, do you? Analog sticks are useless in Killer Instinct. :P
I would have preferred more than one accessible button on the top of the Wii Remote. Maybe Nintendo experimented with a few designs and found that users were often pressing the wrong one, but I dunno. I think they could have fit ABXY up there and it would've worked. Still, with a nunchuk, you've got A, B, L, and C, which is enough for all but the most complicated control schemes.
