It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. This week, Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu / Eevee appear for the first time, and Persona Q2 moves up another spot.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between June 7 and June 13.

Up until this point, Splatoon 2 has been entirely free to play online. Yet in just a few months ago, that’s going to change in a notable way. When Nintendo Switch Online fully launches in September, players will need to pay if they want to battle others.

Producer Hisashi Nogami told Polygon that he doesn’t believe the move to paid online multiplayer will have a major impact. However, he does feel that there could be some changes to how people approach the game.

After unveiling Yoshi for Switch last year, the game was nowhere to be seen at this year’s E3. We previously heard that the game would be shown later in 2018 instead.

IGN also asked for an update on the project from Nintendo’s Bill Trinen. Trinen was able to confirm that it’s still on track and “making really good progress.” The reason it’s taking a bit of extra time is to implement a few improvements.

The latest Splatfest in Splatoon 2 took place in both North America and Europe this weekend. After a day of fun battles, the results are in.

This week’s Splatfest asked players how they prefer their orange juice. You could have sided with either Team Pulp or Team No-Pulp.

Capcom

During its latest shareholders meeting, Capcom was asked about its impressions regarding Switch. The company responded by pointing out that Monster Hunter XX is available, and that it intends to “continue developing other titles for this platform in the future.”

One tweet that has been making the rounds on Japanese blogs is from Twitter user koudaiseidaos, who supposedly attended the shareholders meeting. This person notes that Monster Hunter World isn’t going to be happening on Switch, but Capcom supposedly wants to continue with the franchise on the console and have future plans for it. This does not appear to be documented on Capcom’s website (including the official Q&A transcript from the latest meeting), however, so we’d advise taking that message with a grain of salt.

In terms of what’s been officially announced, Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1+2 drops on Switch next month. Okami HD and the western version of Monster Hunter XX follow in August. Lastly, Mega Man 11 launches in October.
