I've purchased some of my favorite games multiple times — both to support the developer, and because I prefer the newer platform and don't want to have to deal with playing the game on the old platform. But often, after the secondary purchase, I won't actually play the game again. I didn't feel like playing it again in that moment where I purchased it again. I know I will want to replay it one day, which is why I re-bought it. But until I actually do, that second copy will seem to be have been purchased by someone who has never played the game at all.
