There were games on sale I bought on impulse that I’ve dumped plenty of hours into.
Super Mario Odyssey - bought it while I was waiting for Tears of the Kingdom to release, replayed it at least three times. Same with Mario + Rabbids.
Lots of indie games - Slime Rancher, Cat Quest II, both Cattails games, Sprout Valley. All in the replay pile and some of my favorites.
Got my money’s worth and then some, plus I wouldn’t have given them a chance if I was hesitant ¯_(ツ)_/¯
