Oh man, this one is easy. The only game "romance" with any substance, Ico and Yorda. Seriously, when was the last time you actually cared as much about the girl in the game as your in-game counterpart?
I'd probably say the main character of Dragon Quest 5 and Bianca, but Kafei and Anju are a great choice too.
the video already covered mine, locke and celes was pretty incredible. more video games need to be subtle about things.
Dante and Nero....because the deranged hentai fan-fiction of DeviantArt is the only thing temporarily satisfying and suppressing future serial rapists and pedophiles from forming.
For everything else:
Nathan Drake and his battle with homosexuality.

Cave Story - Curly Brace and Quote. It's also a bit naughty. I mean, you can actually find her panties!
James and Mary Sunderland. Easily the most developed and interesting romance in a video game so far.
Also Flint & Hinawa, Crono & Marle, and Seto & Ren.

Isaac Clarke and Nicole from Dead Space 2. A tragic, beautiful love story in the middle of a horror game. It worked so well and felt so much more real than any other relationship I've seen in a game, yet it's a hallucination of Isaac's mind.
I crave more stories with a depth like that.

Dom Santiago and Marcus Fenix.
They're practically husband and wife, they just don't realise it yet.

Welkin and Alicia in Valkyria Chronicles because it felt like an actual romance as opposed to a love story that is basically like the one from Speed
Locke and Celes was handled really nicely. But to be completely honest, I have to say Link and Zelda from Skyward Sword was probably my favorite. Link's unconditional dedication to finding her was really touching (sniff, sniff)... I fucking hate vday.

I -love- the Ninja Gaiden and FF6 references. They would probably -both- be in my top 10 or so.
No obvious number 1's come to mind, however. Zelda/Link (all iterations) should probably be part of this. I know a lot of people would disagree, and I think they have good reasons. However, despite its flaws, FFX's romantic elements (i.e. - Tidus and Yuna) worked for me. It made the ending heavier than it certainly would have been otherwise.
I haven't played it.. but maybe Ico? Shadow of the Colossus? Kerrigan and Raynor? Geez, so many options...

Yuna and Tidus, Rinoa and Squall, Catherine/Katherine and Vincent, Eva and Big Boss, Leon and Ada, KOS-MOS and Shion, and probably missing a few.
Kafei and Anju. Locke And Celes from FF6, Laguna/Squall and Julia/Rinoa duality from FF8, Tidus and Yuna from FFX, Crono and Marle, Ico and Yorda, Wander and Mono
And false loves like Snake and EVA, as well as Tim and Princess from Braid
