A very tiny amount. Got lucky and managed to play a demo of skyward sword, if you watch videos of it you can see it, but it is unnoticeable when you're playing.
Personally, my biggest issue with skyward sword is that, despite all the motion controls, the items don't seem to do anything special with it other than letting you swing a sword diagonally.
Granted, I stopped watching trailers a while ago to save the anticipation for when I actually get to play the game, but of the items I have seen, (the bow, slingshot, beetle, bombs, sword) none of them are exactly revolutionary, and all have equivilants to previous games in the serious. (Rolling bombs = bombchus and Beetle = the numerous ways you could control flying birds, though obviously its slightly more important than that.)
While there is a certain coolfactor to doing 1-1 movement with a sword, I got that already way back when with red steel 2.
