Sony Stealthily Increases the Size of PS5, PS4's Needlessly Restrictive PS Store Wishlist 1

It looks like Sony has quietly bumped the number of items you can add to your PS Store wishlist.

The feature – a necessity for digital plazas – has often been criticised for being needlessly restrictive, limiting the number of items you can add to 100.

We’ve regularly butted heads with the cap, being forced to rethink our watched items – or turn to third-party alternatives all together.

But, first spotted by ResetEra, we can confirm the size of the wishlist has been stealthily expanded. We were able to add over 125 items to ours, and there are reports the feature now tops out at about 188 games.

We still think this is unnecessarily obstructive; while you could argue there’s really no need to have so many games in your wishlist, Sony now actively encourages you to “wishlist” games the moment they’re announced, so you shouldn’t have to deal with such pointless limitations.

It’s a step in the right direction, then, and the PS Store is definitely getting better. But there are still so many restrictions and oversights before the storefront catches up to best-in-class plazas, like Steam.
