Wishlist Unavailable Item

Trying to figure out what it is but using the "steamdb app/#" with google isn't working. Only thing that comes up is The Dinosaur Operation and I have no idea what that even is.

If anyone can help me figure out what it could have been I'd appreciate it. I originally added the game to my wishlist back on 12/31/2018. App # is: 603640. Link copied from it is:

https

app/603640/
?snr=1_25_4__318

Unavailable Item - in my experience only happens when STEAM delists a game. That's happened twice to me in the 17 years I've used STEAM. Check the store to see if your wishlisted item is still available for sale on STEAM.

I'm pretty sure it's not available hence the current listing of it on the wishlist. But normally you could use the copy link on it to get the # tied to the game and use "steamdb app/#" with google to find out what the game was. Only this time it's not working cause some other game I have no clue about is coming up.

My problem is trying to find out which game got delisted cause right now I have no clue.

That's where it doesn't make sense. I wouldn't have wishlisted something like that.

Same problem here. I had 4 items on my wishlist turn into blank grey 'unavailable item' entries & I have no idea what games that they might have been. One of them was my #3 on my wishlist, while others were ranked much further down. I really want to know what those titles were!

I take it the "steamdb app/#" solution doesn't work for you?

Honestly I'm just leaving my unavailable wishlist item on there to see if it changes down the line so I can find out what mine really was.
