Greatest Video Game Couples
-
Link & Zelda - The Legend of Zelda
Great, truly timeless couple. The wall of text defending Midna (not that I hate her or anything) was not necessary. Please go elsewhere with that.
One of the most unique original couples. Zelda is a great guardian and uses magical firepower. No other princess can. Sheik is awesome too.
The first moment I saw them together, they instantly became my favorite ship.
-
Mario & Princess Peach - Super Mario Bros.
Okay, first off, I really love this couple. It's my favorite. Bowser and Peach did not make children. The Koopalings were adopted, except for Bowser Jr., whose mom is some other woman in the Mario comic series. So Peach and Mario are the best couple ever. Although Peach can be irritating sometimes, that won't stop me from loving this couple.
This couple is not "awful," and I see Caps Girl has found a new target. In any case, this is actually a very sweet couple and only gets hate because of the frightening amount of hatred directed at Peach herself.

Luigi & Princess Daisy - Super Mario Bros.
-
Shulk & Fiora - Xenoblade Chronicles
Honestly, my favorite couple in all of video games. This should be way higher, but Xenoblade Chronicles is such an underrated game.
-
Chrom & Robin - Fire Emblem: Awakening
Obviously, this can only be canon if "Robin" (or whatever you named the character you play as) is female, but interpret what you will from the chemistry and interactions occurring even when playing as a dude.
It really, really adds to the story when these two end up in love or married.
Too bad it can only happen if you're playing as a female.
Nintendo seems to have caught on - they haven't even tried to push Chrom/Sumia since "FE Awakening" itself. Now, where you see one of these guys (general "guys" since Robin can also be female), you see the other. Even "Smash 3DS/Wii U" still had Chrom appear as Robin's Final Smash and did not bother to change this when Chrom became a separate character in "Ultimate."
-
Andy Bogard & Mai Shiranui - King of Fighters
Sorry, fanboys, but it's been made very clear who Mai's heart belongs to, and it's not you, your original character, or whatever other existing character (male or female, from KOF or anything else) you personally prefer over Andy.
And "Fatal Fury." "King of Fighters" started out as a crossover game between "Fatal Fury," "Art of Fighting," "Psycho Soldier," and "Ikari Warriors."
-
Pac-Man & Mrs. Pac-Man - Pac-Man
-
Ness & Paula - Earthbound
-
Yuri & Alice - Shadow Hearts
The most romantic and moving couple for me. Their romance is so deep that it can't be compared to anything else.
-
Fox McCloud & Krystal - Star Fox
Play Star Fox Command and you will know it is true.

Wise & Jane Doe - Zenless Zone Zero

Robert Robertson III & Invisigal - Dispatch
-
Vito Scaletta & Joe Barbaro - Mafia II
Nothing like a good old-fashioned bromance. Joe and Vito look out for one another. Joe is the wild, loud, and reckless one, while Vito is the calm and smart one. Go Vi-joe.
The chemistry between these two mobsters is priceless. Who needs a short-assed Robin Hood wannabe and his bimbo princess when you can have two trash-talking gangsters?
One of the greatest video game bromances in recent memory.
-
Sly & Carmelita - Sly Cooper series
Their dramatic and heartwarming relationship is one of the best plot points of the series.
-
Cloud Strife & Tifa Lockhart - Final Fantasy VII
I would write something here, but the shipping wars in the FF7 community are notoriously intense.
-
Ryu & Chun-Li - Street Fighter
-
Squall Leonhart & Rinoa Heartilly - Final Fantasy VIII
-
Chris Redfield & Jill Valentine - Resident Evil
The first Resident Evil couple and the most original.
Better than Chris and Sheva if you ask me.
-
Liu Kang & Kitana - Mortal Kombat
Probably the most beautiful video game couple ever. Not to mention the fact that they both can kick anyone's butt.
-
Sean Devlin & Skylar St. Claire - The Saboteur
A pint and a shag was all Sean Devlin ever needed, and Skylar didn't disappoint.
-
Mega Man & Splash Woman - Mega Man
-
Male & Female Wii Fit Trainer - Wii Fit
-
Young Cricket & Ashley - WarioWare
-
Bolo & Risky Boots - Shantae
-
Phoenix Wright & Franziska von Karma - Ace Attorney
-
Clementine & Louis - The Walking Dead
-
Lee & Molly - The Walking Dead
