CATALOGUE / ACTIVE FILE

2,000, 2,600 or More Games?

Why public catalogue totals vary and how to count a location-filtered lobby.

BN
AUCHECK / 25

Reviews cite different game totals. Region, login, duplicate editions and update dates can all explain the spread.

READ THE SIGNAL

Separate the interface claim from the evidence needed to support it. For an Australian reader, current ACMA guidance, authentic regulator records, exact account terms and transaction evidence take priority over a ranking page or promotional card.

ACTION SEQUENCE

  1. 01 Count visible titles after location filtering.
  2. 02 Separate categories and duplicates.
  3. 03 Test a sample of launches.

QUESTIONS THAT CHANGE THE DECISION

Was the reviewer signed in?

Are unavailable titles counted?

Which date is the snapshot?

LAB VERDICT

A defensible result may be “confirmed”, “attributed”, “conflicting” or “not independently verified”. If the evidence remains incomplete, the correct action is to pause—not to fill the gap with the most attractive claim.
