This seems like a problem with your node/npm and not with Angular CLI.

Please have a look at the fixing npm permissions page, common errors page, npm issue tracker, or open a new issue in that issue tracker if the problem you are experiencing isn't known.

Best I can say is that I can definitely see and install the latest version on my machine:

kamik@RED-X1C6 MINGW64 ~
$ npm i -g @angular/cli@latest
C:\Program Files\nodejs\ng -> C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\@angular\cli\bin\ng
npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: fsevents@1.2.4 (node_modules\@angular\cli\node_modules\fsevents):
npm WARN notsup SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Unsupported platform for fsevents@1.2.4: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"any"} (current: {"os":"win32","arch":"x64"})

+ @angular/cli@6.1.2

kamik@RED-X1C6 MINGW64 ~
$ npm show @angular/cli version
6.1.2

Perhaps you are running into some problem with the propagation of packages in npm, or a proxy issue, but either way that's up to the result of running npm and there isn't anything we can do there.

setting it to latest in package.json manually and reinstalling worked.. so all good..

So having this WARN is not a problem?
