* A lot of people seem to think it's [[Narm]], but Maria's speech in ''[[
** Don't forget the ending to the Last Story in ''[[Shadow the Hedgehog]]''. When everybody in GUN HQ is celebrating, and the realization that Professor Gerald, and the project that created Shadow, had been misunderstood. "We were all wrong about the professor. After the way we all treated him, he saved us all in the end."
*** Another moment is in the final battle, after you spend about seven minutes in the battle.
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Dr. Eggman:''' Shadow, can you hear me? This may be the last chance I get to speak to you, so... What I said about having created you? It was all a lie. Everyone thought you had died during [[Sonic Adventure 2
** Speaking of Shadow, this exchange from [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 (
{{quote| '''Rouge:''' Even if you believe that the whole world will be against you... know that I'll always remain by your side. Remember that.<br />
'''Shadow:''' ...I will. }}
* Despite being considered one of the worst games in its series, [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 (
** Despite the hate it receives, the cinematic scenes with Sonic and Princess Elise are actually quite sweet, especially when she bandages Sonic's arm after it was hurt, and when the two stop by a lake. ({{spoiler|Save for "[[Interspecies Romance|the kiss of life]]," but even still DESPITE its hideous appearance, it DID bring Sonic back to life so that he could help save time and everyone else with it.}})
** Any scene with Silver and Blaze also fits here in this troper, and it even established a shipper to boot. {{spoiler|Not to mention Blaze's [[Heroic Sacrifice|sacrifice]] at Silver's story mode ending is a surefire [[Tear Jerker
** Any scene with Silver and Amy as well.
* From ''[[
** This action was provoked by a similar heartwarming moment, where after being sent by Robotnik to interogate Amy for the bird she is protecting, she begs for Gamma to save it. After some hesitation (which upon he is shown to be ''physically pained'' by his emotional conflict) Gamma breaks open their cell and orders them to leave. He hangs his head dumbfounded and guilt ridden at disobeying an order, at which point Amy offers him her friendship. The heartwrenching "Theme Of E-102" playing in the background only makes it more powerful.
* Much of Sonic and Tails' interaction in [[Sonic Colors
* ''[[Sonic and The Black Knight]]'' has a special treat for the fans going through their treasury, namely a trio of videos of fanart from people around the globe, set to a slower, calmer orchestral version of "It Doesn't Matter". As a Sonic fan who routinely hears knocks against the Blue Blur from several sources, this made me melt inside because he really is still that loved.
** The best part of it is, that Sega didn't just use the "Quality" fan-art.
* [[
** The ending has a double Heartwarming Moment. {{spoiler|At the end, everyone (plus the originally absent Shadow and Silver) is back at the party and having fun. Not only do we see Classic Sonic attempt to perform the Boost ability, but when Classic Sonic and Tails have to return, Sonic tells his younger self "Enjoy your future! It's gonna be great!". And at the end of the credits, after seeing clips of the original stages, you're treated to a small reprise of the opening cutscene, the box listing a title now replaced with "Happy Birthday, Sonic!" and a crowd shouting that same exact phrase. Even more poignant when you realize that this was a sound clip recorded at the ''Sonic Boom'' anniversary party and SEGA themselves asked the fans there to say it!}}
*** {{spoiler|It's two recordings, actually. The other recording is from ''Summer of Sonic 2011'', an event which may be the epitome of [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]] - since it was a totally free event set up by the fanbase out of love to the series. In the beginning in 2007, when the event could only hold 200 people in the room at a time, had local English guests, and was entirely home-funded, fans paid for ''aeroplane tickets'' just to get there to hang out, with no idea that the annual event would eventually get so big as to be visited by Crush40, Takashi Iizuka, and ''Yuji Naka himself''. It seemed to be a special moment for Mike Pollock, who while leaving only at the very end of the day, said to one of the guys at the door that he really hoped it would be held again next year, and would come again regardless of his schedule.}}
* What, no mention of Sonic's interactions with Blaze? In any of the games they've been in?
** Their interactions are more than heartwarming. Especially the ending to the first [[Sonic Rush
* Come on. No matter what you thought of [[Base Breaker|Big The Cat]] and his [[Scrappy Mechanic|fishing minigame]], say you didn't smile even a little at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4XfEAnqzpo his ending] in ''Sonic Adventure''. The extremely cheery "Lazy Days" only fuels this further.
* There's something very oddly heartwarming about [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lPp_J0CRg0 Metal Sonic's reawakening]. It might just be the music, but ''wow''.
