Scan for missing licensed game?

I've got a problem, that's probably a noob question, but it's driving me nuts.

In my NES collection, I would like to have the 715 officially licensed games, but when I import my NoIntro-romset (filled with proto, Unl, Rev A, etc.) and filter it in Launchbox, I end up with 714.

Is there any smart way for me to find out what game I'm missing? I'm so close to finished, and I've spent hours going through the Wiki list (manually) to spot the difference.

Tried Romcenter, but I couldn't figure out how it would end up showing me what game is not included in my Launchbox collection.

My best guess is that this happened: 1 game is a Japan/US release, and has the Japan version set as default, and my auto-populate is filtering it out as 'Not US'.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance!

(Quick note, I've included Nintendo World Championship and Nintendo Campus Challenge 1991. Also, I've made sure that PacMan and Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade are double titles. So those are not the ones I'm missing.)

Update: It turns out, the list on Wikipedia is misleading.

The text says: "...680 of these games released in North America, with an additional 35 released in Europe or Australia."

But the list of games only shows 35 PAL and 679 US games. So the total is 714 :)

Still - if anyone's got any good ideas on how to check which licensed games are missing in the collection, please let me know.
