Limitations
This template uses the parser function  which is considered an "expensive parser function", only a limited number of which can be included on any one page (including functions inside transcluded templates). When this limit is exceeded, any further  functions automatically return false, whether the target page exists or not.

As such, this template should not be expanded to check for more than 95 games. 99 is the default value for expensive parser functions per page; this template uses 1 ifexist call per game, making the theoretical maximum of games 99. A little "buffer" should be given, hence 95 games maximum.

Despite of the somewhat generous limit, the template should only be used to check for common or "main" games at the wiki. If an overview page for a certain game does not exist, the template produces a redlink to said page which shows up on Special:WantedPages. Using the template to check for "fringe" games will hence result in a lot of redlinks.
