It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart! With the latest chart, Fire Emblem If maintains its spot at the top.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between June 4 and June 10.

Update (6/21): Bumped to the top. We now have a pretty good idea as to why there are two different colored Isabelle sprites. It seems like Isabelle’s amiibo card will unlock the one on the left, while the figure unlocks the one on the right.


Nintendo has shown Isabelle running in Super Mario Maker through an amiibo costume, which is pictured on the left. The image on the right, however, shows a different colored costume from the unlock screen. It’s possible – although certainly not confirmed – that we could be seeing costumes in more than one color.
