For me, it was Princess Rosalina’s backstory in Super Mario Galaxy.

Probably one that doesn't get recognized much. In Anachronox, when you find out what happened to Fatima on "that night".

Genshin has had me tearing up in a few of its main story quests, beautiful game

Earthbound. Was playing it as a kid and didn't have a guide. Final boss, was losing. Hit "pray" in a panic because I was out of options. And then it does the whole thing, and something about overcoming impossible odds with the power of love and community gets to me.

Also the ending of the binding of Isaac where you hear his parents fighting. That dredged up some feelings I didn't know were kicking around down there!

Mother 3 may be the only game that made me teary. I think there may be another I'm blocking out but I generally avoiding trying to be sad

A game has never made me cry, but movies and shows make me cry all the time. Even the most emotional game just doesn't come close to other mediums.
