I'm totally ok with Wiimote on the side in New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Why Nintendo doesn't support the Classic controller in any of their retail release, I have /no/ idea.

Probably because Nintendo wants to focus more on motion-sensing controls, along with that Nunchuk attachment.
A bit of Wii heresy; just because it's on the Wii doesn't mean it has to use motion controls. They make sense in, say, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. They work great and feel natural. DKCR, not so much. An option to use the Classic or GCN controllers would've been nice.
 
My sister used the Wiimote plus Nunchuk and she's fine too
 
I use Sideways for both games. Just feel more conformable with it.

I guess shaking the Wii Remote to do hand slaps just doesn't cut it in the end. Oddly, DKCR doesn't play way too differently from NSMB Wii, since they both use the exact same control schemes.

NSMBW is fun, but DKCR is much better, even though it's only for two players.
I think DKCR would be too complex to show for players at once.
 
I had great fun from both games, but I think Donkey Kong Country Returns is the superior game. It brought greater challenges and had a nice flow, as well as great level designs and music.

I am not too sure about the multiplayer experiences in both games. I had a hard time concentrating when playing DKCR with someone else and I haven't played NSMBW with anybody.
