Yes, Believe it or not, this actually happened. The Daily Telegraph has reported that a Japanese gamer, known only as Sal9000 has married a video game character from the game LovePlus on the Nintendo DS.
The Daily telegraph states:
Japanese computer gamers are known for taking an obsessive approach to their hobby, and Love Plus is the latest game to develop a cult following.
Players are expected to spend hours with their virtual crushes" buying them flowers, taking them for dates and making future plans. The girls alter their behaviour and personality in reaction to how they are treated.

I read that it was actually an unofficial publicity stunt to promote the game as well as the "otaku lifestyle"... though, needless to say, in questionable taste.
