#46 (incorrect guesses - Golden Axe, Okami, Beyond Oasis, Soul Reaver)
- Challenging, highly regarded old school Zelda-like that was exclusive to one of Nintendo’s rivals.
- Based on previous guesses - it was released during a generation after Golden Axe Warrior, after Beyond Oasis, and before Okami.
- Although this got a sequel, this series never expanded beyond the platform it originally appeared on. This particular game was made available digitally on later platforms from the same console manufacturer though.
- Much like one of Nintendo's game that this is similar to, this also came with a map and tips book.

#45
- If you fancy gifting something to one of the ladies you've met, you’ll have to make sure you get change from the owner when you get the chance. Who you'll be gifting it to will be dependent on if it's a new game or new game+.
- What was the likelihood that all these people with ties to each other would be in the same place at the same time?
- And what was the likelihood that our protagonist would solve everyone's problems in under 24 hours?
- The main motivation of our protagonist though, is to find out where his friend / ex partner may have been hyde-ing.

#44
- Who knew flatulence could be such a versatile tool?
- The attention to detail is incredible. No surprise given the creators of the franchise this is based on were involved throughout.

#43 (incorrect guesses - Super Smash Bros Melee)
- One of several iterations of an iconic game that saw the playable roster double from the number found in the original.
- Only half of that roster increase is playable for the first time here - the other half were playable in another version of the game released between this and the original.

#42
- The guy who helps you if you go out of bounds was best known previously for tossing things at you.

My list so far

44 - South Park: The Stick of Truth, or Fractured but Whole?
