Valhalla and FFCC will more than likely make it out of Japan into Europe and America. Klonoa I have no idea about.

2009 lineup for Wii is really shaping up haha. Especially thx to big Japanese 3rd parties switching their forces to Wii.

Also Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers is apparently still in production as no word on this game replacing it.
