Nintendo's new controller is new, it's different. Nintendo is going to market that differentiation. That is by definition a "gimmick". It's also not a gimmick I've been impressed with thus far.

If it doesn't make gaming more fun, then why was it made?
I'll resever my final judgement until I get to work with it more, but I'm getting increasingly frustrated by the continuing ineptitude of controller layout designers.
Well, personally I haven't played the Wii yet, so I will hold my judgment on the controller until I play the console as well, but I still see why so many people seem to dislike the controller. It's going to take a lot of getting used to for people because everyone is still used to the old controllers, including myself. :bloogrin But I think I'll be ok with it once I get used to it. It's different, that's for sure.
