So maybe I'm being compeltely stupid here, or maybe there are more wii controls than it first appears, thereby making every tilt of my hand vitally important, but every time I STOP moving my guy... he turns around and starts walking toward the bottom of the screen. EVERY time, WITHOUT fail, and NOTHING WILL MAKE HIM STOP. It's driving me crazy, and obviously, it's making everything INSANELY difficult. What the heck is his problem? Or mine, whichever!!

This game has no control with the WiiMote movement (except using tools)

try playing another game (LoZ:TP, SMG a game that involves your character moving with the anologue stick) if your character does the same, it's because the anologue stick has messed up abit, you can try and fix it some way, or replace the nunchuck.

Actually, have you tried to reset the game? ^__^ I mean, not the game itself, but does it happen EVERY time you play it?

In my AWL/AnWL game, sometimes the controller messed up and made my character move in one direction. It sometimes was fixed upon turning it on then off, but sometimes I just needed another controller completely. If you have another Wii-mote/nunchuck, try using different ones? ^__^;

I know that happens on the gamecube...
If that happens on the gamecube, you need to press all the buttons on the controller for 10 secs, try something simalar with the wii remote. If all else fails look into the wii instruction booklet.
