Hello,

There is no restriction of number of NAT statements as far as I know or heard.

The document does not mention that either. I am sure that 200 NAT statements can be implemented on even ASA 5506 with base license easily.

Questions is tough one to answer :

So maximum number of NAT translations depends on available memory, CPU speed and actual configuration of the ASA. In other words, there is no 65535 maximum.

5506 -X  is easily can handle 200 NAT rules for sure.
