CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Well, I made a thread like this mostly for anime and then for Disney, but I'm curious. What are some of your favorite couples from the video games you play? Yeah I know, me and my strange threads. Meanwhile, considering I don't play many video games I think this could be interesting. Might introduce me to some new games!

Any couple who isn't Emil and Marta from ToS: Dawn of a New World...

Lol, see, now here is what I mean about knowing nothing of good videos games. I don't think I've ever heard of this one. xD

I envy you.

Perhaps it's not so good then? 0.o

You did not just ask this... OTL Now I can't resist! I daresay I prefer playing video games to watching anime.

Er... in no particular order...

Kafei x Anju from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Zelos x Sheena from Tales of Symphonia
Lloyd x Colette from Tales of Symphonia
Sora x Kairi from Kingdom Hearts
Roxas x Namine from Kingdom Hearts II
Yuri x Estelle from Tales of Vesperia
Karol x Nan from Tales of Vesperia
Isaac x Mia from Golden Sun
Isaac x Jenna from Golden Sun
Felix x Sheba from Golden Sun
Luke x Akari (the main female) from Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility
Gill x Akari from Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility
Chase x Hikari (the main female) from Harvest Moon: Animal Parade

And for some random stuff,
Marth x Zelda from... different games .__.;
People get angry at me for this, haha. Please refrain?


...And I'm sure there would be more, if only I would buckle down and finish some games already.

I don't usually pay attention to the couples in video games (are there less in games than other media, maybe?), but some I do like:

Kafei x Anju from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Welkin x Alicia from Valkyria Chronicles (I liked[SIZE="1"] watching other people play[/SIZE] that game. XD

I'll probably remember more later... @_@

Well I certainly won't give you a hard time. Heck, one of my friends is (or was, at least) a fan of Ike x Samus. XD

Ahaha, interesting. If it's worth anything I pair MarthxZelda in SSBB...and maybe SnakexSamus. I have issues. xD

Lol, so yeah, I don't play to many videos games. Mostly ones made for kids. xD

I only pair people when the game calls for it, like in Harvest Moon (no preferences - I'm not really into them) or Fire Emblem, where I pair LynXHector, IsadoraXHarken (if I use them at all), and either LuciusXSerra or MatthewXSerra (getting the supports for that last one is nigh impossible, though). Other than that, I pretty much follow whatever canon says happens.

Also, in FF4, I don't ship anyone, but Kain deserves Rosa more than that girly-man paladin ever did. Just sayin'.

Uhm...

Gordon and Alex

XD

I get what you're saying. I just tend to have a bit of a strange imagination. xD I support all kinds of canon and non-canon couples. Oh, I so wanna play FF4 now just so I can know what you're talking about. Lol.

Yeah, kidnapping her, trying to force his way into her pants, and helping a major villain destroy the world totally makes him deserve her more than the guy who felt remorse for his actions and wished to give up his life of evil and bloodshed to become a benevolent protector of the world and humankind.

Ha ha ha, silly Nate, this is shipping. None of that matters. If events in the story conflict with the shipper's interpretation of who would make the cutest couple, they are summarily ignored, canon be darned.

This is why I'm not a shipper.

I don't play much games but:
FF7: Cloud + Tifa, Yuffie + Reno (I read a fic where this was done, and it didn't seem too odd.)
Zelda: Zelda + Link of course (excuuse me, princess!)
FF6: Ceres + Locke, Edgar + Terra (because it's a funny idea)

Jak x Keira

I actually supported Jak x Ashelin for a while. The reason being I saw the ending of Jak 3 before I saw a lot of Jak 2 and 3. (And one part of the ending to Jak 3 is kinda bizarre, I think. If I remember right. XD) Now, I don't know which to support, even though Jak x Keira is obviously cannon. XD

Heh, I usually just support whatever couples the writers actually put in there. ^^;;

I'm happy that you go for LynXHector, because LynXEliwood was an awful, awful pairing and I'm glad it's probably Ninian that's canon.

Other than that, I mostly only care about FE pairings, so ErkXPriscilla, LynXHector, SainXRebecca(or anyone he can get with, really), and BartreXKarla for FE7, GerikXMarisa, JoshuaXNatasha, and FordeXVanessa for FE8, and I can't really comment on FE9 because FE10 had such an awful story.

I'll admit, as a shipper I am guilty of the above statement. Though I will comment that I like to pair two characters together most often by how they interact or if they seem to have chemistry (though I suppose that's up to opinion with non-cannon couples) so I don't pair characters just because I think they look cute together.

TopazRaven (post: 1456650) wrote:Auron x Rikku

I know pairings don't have to make sense for shippers, but...no plz. It's just creepy - he could be her father, for crying out loud!

I generally support canon pairings]Zelda[/u]
Link X Zelda (when present)
Malon X Link (one-sided)

FFX
Tidus X Yuna
Wakka X Lulu

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Prince X Farah

Jak and Daxter
Jak X Keira

Xenogears
Fei X Elly
Bart X Margie
Citan X Yui (I feel so sorry for her!)

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
you X Bastila
you X Carth

Shadow of the Colossus
wanderer X Mono

Hotel Dusk: Room 215
Kyle Hyde X Rachel

Edit: Never mind. I'll just let it go. Just know wither you like the pairing or not I didn't appreciate you ranting at me like I'm some gross, senseless person for liking that particuler pairing.

Hmmmm.... here are some of mine:

-Link and Illia, from Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess.
-Sora and Kairi, from Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2.
-Balthier and Fran, from Final Fantasy 12.
-Vaan and Penalo, from Final Fantasy 12.
-Tidus and Yuna, from Final Fantasy 10.

Im sure there are more, but Im too lazy to think about it at this moment. XD

Hmmmmm :/

Fire Emblem
Elewood and Ninian
Hector and Lyn
Ike and Queen Elencia (not for romantic pairing, just for great teamwork pairing)
Roy and Lillina

Meryl and Johnny... [spoiler]Hopefully she stops being such a sadist after SOP wears off, and he keeps that spine he grew.[/spoiler]

I wish they hadn't so thoroughly violated Otacon in MGS2, otherwise it would have been nice to pair him up with [spoiler] EE (There's no blood relationship, so the only squick is in his backstory, not in anything hypothetical between them) [/spoiler] She's the only girl who didn't treat him like garbage and totally abuse him.

You know, since this thread has been started I've had to resist an extreme temptation to post "Duke Nukem x Prostitutes." And I've done quite wel...wait...doh!

FF7:
Cloud & Barret
Red XIII & Vincent

I also like Red XIII and Quina from FF9...

LOL. Well you know, you can go on a dare with Barret in FF7 so that is like so totally canon. xD

Chell X The Weighted Companion Cube will always be my favorite video game romance though. Well, next to the Persona 4 main character and every datable female in Persona 4. That harem has such deep connections with him that are completely devoid of jealousy and are so lifelike. Its truly amazing.

I don't know why I chose to read this thread today, since I haven't looked at it even once before.

But this post made me laugh out loud. XDD

So that makes like... the third paring so far from a non-Japanese game.
Don't you people play anything not Japanese? XD

I think the reason for the lack of non-Japanese games in this thread is simply due to a fundamental difference in the type of games Japan produces and the type of games the US produces. The US produces mostly FPS games and Western RPGs. FPS games don't really lend themselves well to developed characters or relationships, and Western RPGs usually don't give the main character much of a personality, and don't have very many well-defined NPCs either.

Japanese games on the other hand (especially RPGs) pride themselves on having defined characters and relationships in games, so it's easier to pair off people in those.

That said...um...Kratos and random naked chicks OTP.
