According to an article on CVG, it has been confirmed that the game is indeed LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga and that motion sensing will be featured in the Wii version. The Wii remote will apparently be used to mimick lightsaber movement and can even be used to reflect enemy fire as apposed to pressing and holding a button. Meanwhile, force-powers will be implemented by holding down the Z button on the Nunchuck while the Wii remote is used to direct it.
For the non-force sensitive characters, the Z button on the Nunchuck will also be used to build machinery from LEGO bricks while moving the Wii remote up and down will speed up the character's movements. Likewise, the same Wii remote movement is used to switch between a gun-character's gun and grappling hook when they are, presumably, standing on a grappling hook pad.
While it definitely isn't a Jedi Knight-style game, it is sounding fairly promising but we'll wait until we get our hands on the title before passing final judgement on the motion-sensing side of the game.
