How these notes are made

A clear line between a source and a claim.

This is an independent bilingual reference project. We organise official announcements and explain their limits. We do not claim affiliation with S-GAME or personal hands-on testing.

Store screenshots provide visual context, not proof of a page’s factual claims. Announced details can change; check the cited source for your platform and region.
