Hinata is cute. Definitely a better choice than Sakura. Not only that, she is way more powerful with her blood limit eyes. She has noticed Naruto for a long time, appreciated him for who he is, and has more faith in him than anyone else. If anything, she might be too good for Naruto, but that is her choice to make. Naruto, on the other hand, when he does realize her existance, seems to care for her as well.
I think they will make a cute couple in the future, with Hinata bringing maturity and sense to Naruto.
More likely, though, there will be another character introduced in the future that will be Naruto's significant other. Probably starts off as an enemy, is really powerful and intelligent, and picks on Naruto. Then she realizes his heart and cares and falls in love with him.
