There's also no Starfox, Wario, or Kid Icarus.
It's possible that the cyan "balloon" icon is a Kirby game involving balloons, but I think Balloon Fighter/Mario Kart balloon battle is far more likely.

Just like Pokémon.
Kirby still is grouped with the first parties a lot. He was one of the 3DS AR cards and in the Streetpass Plaza. Both with no mention of HAL. Kirby is technically second-party, but for all intents and purposes he can be considered like a first party character. You almost never see Pokemon stuff outside of Smash Bros.
