Also: the migration is not perfect, but it should be pretty decent for most mainstream games (that weren't NSO things):

Here's an example of a poor-case migration with some stuff from NSO, mostly:

Super Mario Bros. 3 is now Super Mario Bros. 35
Stardew Valley is now Stardew Valley
Tetris 99 is now Tetris 99
Super Mario World is now Super Mario RPG
Super Mario 64 is now Super Mario RPG

I have replaced fuzzywuzzy with rapidfuzz, a more performant drop-in replacement for fuzzywuzzy. I have auto replaced our old average of 4 methods search logic with WRatio from RapidFuzzy/fuzzywuzzy, which does a similar average of methods. The immense performance improvement from these changes has allowed me to re-add autocomplete for game searching, which mitigates any search quality flaws with using WRatio.

Here is a new example of migration substitutions. Noting that most imperfect matches are due to non-Switch games available on NSO, which DekuDeals does not list like GiantBomb did. Other differences in matches appear to be due to how GiantBomb grouped re-released into one game, or Pokemon variant games to the same game.
