As nice as it was to make the brush strokes with the wiimote, there were some glaring gameplay issues with the Wii version. The biggest was definitely basic attacks. You attacked by jiggling the wiimote, but the damn thing was so finicky that only 1 of the 3 weapon types could be used reliably. The recognition of brush strokes was also extremely difficult. You couldn’t do slow strokes, and it was really bad at recognizing complex patterns. It wasn’t so much a problem when just doing simple strokes in the early game, but some of the more advanced ones were downright impossible.
