Miyamoto's comments in a recent interview with Wired indicate that Nintendo is mostly decided that Zelda Wii will indeed require the use of Wii MotionPlus.
"The goal at this point is that we would make Wii MotionPlus required in order to play Zelda," said Miyamoto. He went on to say, "The bigger hurdle for us is not really whether people have a Wii MotionPlus or don't have it, it's whether or not the experience is one where people will think they want to have a Wii Motion Plus in order to experience it."
Miyamoto previously told people to look toward the sword-play and archery in Wii Sports Resort to get an idea of how Wii MotionPlus will work in Zelda. These games have been getting favourable press from people who have gone hands-on with them at E3, so be sure to check out Wii Sports Resort for yourself when the game launches in about a month. Plus, it's an excellent chance to get a Wii MotionPlus peripheral in preparation for Zelda Wii since it is packaged for free with the game.

Remember the Link's Awakening fan video from two months ago, 2012 Koholint Elections? Well, the creators listened to their viewers requests and have created a sequel. You can find it here:

As mentioned previously, Shigeru Miyamoto showed off conceptual artwork for the new Wii Zelda, which is currently undergoing development. At the time, this artwork was shown only to the select few members of the media who were invited to his Round Table discussion, but the Zelda gods have answered our prayers -- or more likely Nintendo just took pity on us -- and the artwork has since been leaked/released.
You can find it here.
Since it's release, speculation has been running rampant. Especially after comments made by Miyamoto where he pointed out that Link was sans-sword in the picture.
Is the being who resembles a Great Fairy actually the Master Sword? Many have come to think so. What other secrets might the artwork hold? Join in the discussion topic on our very on ZI forums and add your own thoughts into the mix. Webmaster and local Zelda Guru, Hirohiigo Togashi, has some interesting comments on the subject. Check it out!
We will bring you more info on Zelda Wii as soon as we can get our grubby little hands on it.

According to the Game Trailers developer walkthrough, Spirit Tracks is the sequel to Phantom Hourglass, and takes 100 years after PH. Link is also apparently an apprentice engineer in the game. Other than that, not much has been revealed.
