The Most Heart-Wrenching moment in a Nintendo game?

[Euryalus]

Turning on Metroid: Other M

It hurt.

I've played all the metroid titles to date and I've never heard of such a game! Is it a spin off that doesn't matter like metroid pinball? I'm going to assume it was *twitch*

Blue shells make me cry every time.

They're like little precision-guided tragedies.

Oedipus has nothing on the heart wrenching statement of the human condition that is the blue shell. Victory snatched from you at the very end... It's so sad. :,(

OT: I think I'm going to surprise absolutely everyone here with a curve ball. I'm choosing a scene from Majora's Mask.

The one when Kafei and Anju reunite? It's beautiful (and sad). Courage up until the end.

This is the only one I can think of right now (spoilers by the way):

Spoiler: Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword

The part where Eliwood slays a dragon with the titual Blazing Sword... only to find out that the dragon was actually Ninian, the mysterious dancer he may or may not have a crush on. And if you happen to ship that pairing, well...

At least she gets better.

Navi leaving. She was kind of annoying but I miss that little blue ball of fairy stuff.

If you guys are playing MarioKart 8 you should check out the WOM (WiiU Online Multiplayer) UserGroup, we have a group together, and just waiting for the right moment to create a small Karting tournament amongst the escapist users
Later there will of course be SmashBros and Splatoon to multiplayer too in bigger groups!

On Topic:
I have to go with the start of XenobladeChronicles

Spoiler

I actually thought the main characters best friend died.
First I was like "no way, she'll be back"
But it took crazy any gameplayhours before she appeared again, and in between there I was actually thinking Nintendo had done something awesome and actually killed of a character I thought would be important to the story.
