It definitely helps. Every dev I've heard talking about releasing a game stresses wishlisting. I forget why, unfortunately. It might make it more noticable, sort of like likensub on YouTube.

I do know that refunding a game is the absolute worst thing you can do to it.

I think its because people who wishlisted will get a notification to buy it once its out, boosting the game's sales at launch, giving it a better chance to be featured on the front pages

Good catch, I didn't think about that.
