PS5 Users Report PlayStation Store Wishlist Malfunction with Large Game Lists

2025-06-30 01:24:52

Recent community reports indicate a technical hiccup with PlayStation 5's wishlist functionality in the PlayStation Store. While Sony expanded the wishlist capacity from 100 to 188 games earlier this year, PS5 consoles seem to struggle displaying lists that surpass the original limit.

Latest Game Information

The digital marketplace, which hosts thousands of titles across all genres, implemented this highly requested upgrade in April 2025. However, users adding more than 100 games encounter blank tiles when accessing their wishlists through the PS5 interface - an issue that doesn't affect the PlayStation Store website or mobile app.

Technical Glitch Affects PS5 Console Display Only

Curiously, the malfunction appears isolated to the PS5's user interface. Community testing confirms that:

  • Identical wishlists load properly on web browsers
  • Mobile apps display full lists without issues
  • The PS5's Welcome hub widget sometimes shows partial lists

This suggests the backend data remains intact, with only the console's display layer malfunctioning.

The timing coincides with Sony's ongoing challenges in maintaining its digital storefront. Beyond this wishlist issue, the PlayStation Store has faced criticism for:

  • Flooding with low-quality "shovelware" games
  • Discoverability problems for legitimate titles
  • Potential consumer protection concerns
