On my way home from work last night I bought a brand new (Wii U) nunchuck and the game works perfectly. I don't know if there is something different about the original (2006) vs the U nunchucks. But at least I can play right now =)

If I ever find my 2nd original nunchuck I'll test it to see if it works or not. Maybe my first one is just old and worn out?

Did anyone ever figure out a fix for this.  I am in the exact same boat.  The game worked just fine on my Wii, but years later trying on the Wii U I cannot get Link to spin no matter how hard I shake the nunchuck.  I'll be cleaning the contacts and manually resetting the nunchuck tonight after work.  If I can find my second nunchuck then I will try that too.  Both nunchucks are the originals I've had since my Wii.  I've already tried an original Wiimote (non Motion Plus) and it doesn't work.

My other test will be to buy a new nunchuck.  What bothers me is that the nunchuck/Wiimote combo works just fine in Wii Sports Resort.  I've got other Wii games I will try also.
