* [[Film/SuperMarioBros The movie]] has the scene where Luigi and Daisy say goodbye.

* When Daisy is reunited with Danielle in the Mushroom Kingdom. Ever since her abduction, she'd be scared and alone in a very creepy world. Danielle, who only met her once before, hugs her and introduces her to the other kidnapped women, who clearly had gotten to know one another and banded together during their imprisonment.

* Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. Mario heads through the vortex in the sky not to rescue Peach, but to rescue his brother.

* [[http://awdplace.tumblr.com/post/145719898930 The people cosest to you will see you for who you really are.]]

* In the 64 installment of ''MarioTennis'', Wario and Waluigi decide to crash the heroes' tournament. As things start to heat up, Bowser and Boo make a sinister entrance...and gesture for a [[GoKartingWithBowser friendly match from Mario]]. Why not?

* The first time you rescue Princess Peach in Super Mario Bros.

* Wario working along with Mario, Luigi, & Yoshi to save the princess in ''VideoGame/SuperMario64DS''. Of his own volition.
** Talking to most of the Toads as Luigi usually solidifies his NoRespectGuy role with them barely acknowledging or recognising him. One Toad however, [[FanOfTheUnderdog idolises Luigi deeply]], and will only entrust a star with the player if they are as him.

[[caption-width-right:350:[[WebAnimation/JimmyNeutronHappyFamilyHappyHour Now it is time for]] [[MemeticMutation father son bonding]].]]

* [[BigBad Bowser]] of all characters gets one in VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine when [[spoiler:Bowser Junior reveals that he knew the whole time that Peach wasn't really his mother, but he still wants to follow in Bowser's footsteps.]] It was just sweet to see some father/son bonding, even if it is between two evil turtle-dragons.
* The end of ''Luigi's Mansion''. Mario is turned back to normal after his painting is rescued by Luigi. He humorously crashes through the machine that turned him back to normal's opening. Luigi cries from both the relief that Mario is finally safe, and from laughing so hard at the vent stuck around Mario's head.
** The ending for the [[VideoGame/LuigisMansionDarkMoon sequel]] takes heartwarming UpToEleven.

* The scene where all the characters in ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'' are sending you hope and support to defeat the Shadow Queen is definitely heartwarming in itself. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmXQvMkamhQ See it here.]]
** YOU GO BRO!
* In ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'', you can read the wishes of people. Two are particularly sweet.
-->Please let Mallow find his way home.
-->I wanna be a great plumber like my brother Mario.
** You know what's sweeter? ''They both came true.''

* In ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory'', when Princess Lipid asks what Mario has dropped, a treasure of everlasting wonder or the shabby, moustachioed man, she automatically assumes it is the treasure chest. Mario, however, says, that Luigi is his brother and is therefore far better than any treasure.
* In the Dream's Deep section in ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam'', Luigi tells Mario that [[SuddenlyVoiced he'll always follow him and that everyone is always there for Mario.]]

* In the 64 version of ''MarioTennis'', Wario and Waluigi decide to crash the heroes' tournament. As things start to heat up, Bowser and Boo make a sinister entrance...and gesture for a [[GoKartingWithBowser friendly match from Mario]]. Why not?

* Though it's not a part of the games, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-DaJGGDoNI this tribute made for Mario's 30th Anniversary]] is likely the most beautiful celebration of Mario's history out there. According to the description, it was a joint effort between fans and the creators of the Mario games, making it even more heartwarming.
** TheStinger can make you tear up.
--> Congratulations Mario! You accomplished the 30 years of work. But your adventure isn't over yet. So, let's go to the next stage now!
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLAvRx0bwUQ Now with a sequel with that also celebrates Luigi's 30th Anniversary.]]
** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzkkgK_zQHI 25th Anniversary video]] for the original Super Mario Bros. also has a great ending, stating that "Mario Saves Peach Forever".
** 2013 is the Year of Luigi, which was announced by Iwata himself wearing Luigi's cap. ''On Valentine's Day.''
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6cPLtEEOsw This one celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the original Super Mario Bros game.]]

* The scene where all the characters in PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor are sending you hope and support to defeat the Shadow Queen is definitely heartwarming in itself. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmXQvMkamhQ See it here.]]

* The ending (and ''especially'' the 100% ending) of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2''. After [[VagueAge an untold number of years]] [[FriendlessBackground spent dealing with issues of]] [[YouCannotGoHomeAgain trauma and loneliness]], and ''two games'' worth of trouble caused by Bowser alone, Rosalina is finally able to return to a peaceful life with the things that undoubtedly make her happiest - her Lumas - and with the knowledge that she now has friends in the world below, a world she thought she'd long since left behind. [[WhenSheSmiles The look on her face]] during that scene pretty much says it all.
