I used to buy my games day 1 at full price.
But not anymore.
Paying for profit margins is giving away money without getting anything in return
Also, with how many copies big(ger) and Nintendo games sell, the development cost share will be payed off quickly.
So why should I spend money for something that has already been payed off?

The price at which I buy a game can be calculated as follows:
Price = MSRP - profit margin(s) - development cost per game
