The Japanese seemed to have lucked out this summer: both Super paper Mario and DK Barrel Blast were due for the GCN this August. Unfortunately for everyone, new rumors indicate the two titles have no official release date. Perhaps -- like with Twilight Princess -- Nintendo is pushing the release of these games back closer to the Wii's release date, to fully utilize backwards compatibility and sell more copies. Either way, it will be a great day when these titles finally hit all shores.
