You can either get a new controller or for less money get the motion plus add on, which is what I did.

If you get the Wiimote+, I'd say that is less clunky stuff to deal with, but you can have a regular Wiimote and get the Motion Plus add on if that is cheaper for you. Personally I'd just buy the Wiimote+ so as to get everything needed in one package, but that's just me.

You DO need MotionPlus, no matter how you go about it. Wiimotion+

Yes you NEEd the plus contoller. The whole game works on wii remote plus only. It does not use the basic pointer at all.

Yes, Skyward Sword does in fact require the Wii Motion Plus. There are two ways of obtaining the required functionality.

1. The Wii Motion Plus add on.

This add-on will allow any normal Wii remote to be used in playing a Wii Motion Plus game. However, some people dislike it because of the added weight/size of the attachment.

2. The Wii Remote Plus.

This is a NEW Wii Remote that has Motion Plus functionality built into it. It is functionally equivalent to a Wii remote with Wii Motion Plus, but without the need for an attachment. It is the same size and shape as a normal Wii remote, leading some to prefer it.

Question seems to have been sufficiently answered.
