Right now, I don't see a lot of NA developers doing much for the Wii. They're more concentrated on the 360 and the PS3 brings in more revenue. In Japan where Wii > PS3 + 360, Japanese developers are more enticed to make Japanese friendly games.
It is very unlikely that Wii will have that much dominance in NA. Publishers see the PC, 360, PS3 road as the more safe approach. I would not expect to see major NA projects for the Wii.

Not yet but certainly in 1-2 years time. Some exaples - Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Dynasty Warriors, etc

Star Ocean IV, Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII are not coming to Wii, and the last two are probably the biggest out of any games in Japan.
indications at the moment are that many devs are happy doing to expensive games for PS360 and still just using party games or cheaper versions of the main game for wii. Although I expect there to more "proper" Wii exclusive games, I still think there will be major games that miss out on wii because AC and CoD 4 have showed how well the big titles can sell, so those types of titles will stay with PS360. I do not think we will get to the John Lucas situation where MGS 4 does not come to PS3
