Into the Lexicon: Delayed Purchase

Delayed purchase: n. The buying of a game, by one who has previously played the game for free, irrespective of the intent to play the bought game but usually with the intention of honoring the creators of the game.

"There wasn't a donate button on Pixel's website when I played Cave Story a year ago, so I am making a delayed purchase on the Wii."
