Third party:

First party:

This release list is a bit troublesome for North America right now…Still no Disaster: Day of Crisis, no word on Another Code R or NPC! Metroid Prime. On the bright side, it looks like Kirby Wii is still in development. Keep in mind that this list is not 100% definitive and does not show all of Nintendo’s releases for this year.

Thanks to Bobbbbb for the news tip!
