What about New Zealand, Palau, Vanuatu, Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Tuvalu, and Brunei?

That is an incredibly arbitrary definition, but still would seem to only rule out New Zealand. As far as I can tell 100% of the landmasses of Palau, Vanuatu, Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Tuvalu, and Brunei are opposite another landmass.
