Video games typically don't focus on romance, but many good stories contain at least a small element of love. The most obvious example of romance in video games would have to be the "Final Fantasy" series, late games in particular.
Ever since that love triangle in "FFVII," which involves one of the most memorable scenes in gaming history (we won't spoil the surprise, though it's extremely well-known), romance has been an integral part of the series. But that's certainly not the only series to touch on the subject.
What about Princess Zelda and Link? Are they even a couple? Most of the games in the series seem to suggest otherwise, and if you want to get into the nitty-gritty you'll discover that seldom are the Link and Zelda in one game the same as the last. It's complicated, but we can't escape the subtle magnetism inherent in the series.
The same goes for Mario and Princess Peach. What's the deal? All we see is that kiss on the cheek at the end, but what happens after that? We're going to count them both as "couples" anyway, because they're too essential to pass up. Deal with it! Who do you think is the cutest video game couple?

LoZ Link and Zelda are almost NEVER romantically involved (Skyward Sword not withstanding)
how they have evolved!
Donkey Kong and Pauline
It was more of a tie between Mario/Peach and Zelink for me, but I picked Mario/Peach because I also adore their counterpart, Luigi/Daisy. In addition, I also ship Zelda and Link with a few other characters - Zelda with Groose, Roy, or Ike; Link with Marth, Midna, or Malon.
I can only ship Mario with one person, and Peach with only one person... and that person is "each other".
&
Lloyd & Colette and Zelos & Sheena from Tales of Symphonia
Mario and his GF have sold millions of games since the 1980's.
I have shipped those two since the age of 3. Not even kidding. XD
(While I'm at it... I also ship Link with Dark Link... and Pipit... and Marth from Fire Emblem... and like any male really. What a slut. XD)
:D
Marth x Link really only makes sense if you've played SSBB... where anything is possible! :D
You know who else I really like paired together from Smash Bros?
Captain Falcon and Samus. <3
