My #46 is Wii Sports Resort. It might share a title with Wii Sports, which was bundled with the Nintendo Wii in 2006, but Wii Sports Resort is light years ahead of its predecessor in terms of quality. Instead of five sporting events, Wii Sports Resort boasts 12, almost all of them winners. They include: swordplay; wakeboarding; frisbee; archery; basketball; table tennis; power cruising; canoeing; cycling; air sports; and golf and bowling, both returning from the original Wii Sports. All events make use of the Wii MotionPlus add-on, which is necessary to play the game, and therefore respond much more accurately to player movements. Wii Sports Resort is a title that could easily be overlooked or dismissed as a sports bundle for the very young or very old. On the contrary, Wii Sports is one of those rare games that appeals to all generations, has something for everyone, can be played – and enjoyed – alone or in a group, and can be used ad infinitum.

So this was the mystery game. It has a castle, ruins, swordsmen, archers, and a loyal dog companion, but it's not an RPG. It's one of the best selling games of all time, and it's set on Wuhu Island: a location that has appeared in five games, most recently in Pilotwings Resort and Mario Kart 7 -- two 3DS games :)
