Last week’s issue of Famitsu featured a new column from Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai. The piece addressed a few questions that fans may have about the new games.

On the topic of deciding enemies for Smash Run in the 3DS version of Smash Bros., Sakurai said that the following ideas were considered in the selection process:

– serves well as a general enemy
– light processing of movement on 3DS (comes down to the system’s hardware)
– it is possible to create uniqueness for that enemy
– maintaining balance between big or small, weak or strong enemies
– reduction of the relative workload that is required
– comes from a series that is possible to choose

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart! Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Persona 5, Final Fantasy XV, Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, and Tales of Zestiria are the new top five.

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