not really. you do want a minimum amount (normally 4 or more)of em but other than that there are other better reasons to select a motherboard. things like socket/cpu support memory compatibility and motherboard build quality.
selecting a psu depends on what gfx card or cards i would be using and what upgrade path i may use...

It doesn't have to affect the choice. Beyond what HEXiT mentioned you can always get splitter or adapter cables if you ever need to add more SATA power leads for your system.
Examples:
6" SATA Power Y Splitter Cable
12" Molex LP4 to 2 SATA Internal Power adapter cable

Here is an add-on PCI-e x1 card that adds extra SATA III (6.0Gb/s) ports in case the mother board runs out. (or didnt have SATA III in the first place.
