Years and years ago I got partway through Dragon Quest XI on the PC, and then got sidetracked and started something else.
Fast forward to a few weeks ago when I had a hankering to get back into it, but the Definitive Edition has released since I last played it and I’d kinda like to play that version instead. But I’m not about to pay $40 for a game I basically already own, so I’m holding off and waiting for a sale.
Other than that, Super Mario Wonder. It’s a fool’s errand to wait for a Nintendo sale, but I guess I’m a fool.
To me DQ11 is such a treasure I’d probably get it full price, just to let SE know there’s still love for that series (not that they’d listen). But, the S version doesn’t add a ton, though… In fact, you get better music and a little more content (and a 2D mode) but technically a graphical downgrade because it’s the switch version. It might get a half off eventually, though.
Having a full party with Shypox, though… Now that makes S worthwhile, haha.
Music can be added back to vanilla mostly as well with a mod.
Oh yes, good point. It can, a friend did it when I ran concurrently with him. It’s not perfect, but it works. I think in terms of importance, it’s lowest on the list (or 2D mode, if that’s not your cup of tea). The additional story is… OK.
But again, you haven’t lived until Serena and Rab both decide to shy pox on the same turn and the boss decides to go ham on the MC, resulting in game over cause you have all the hard stuff turned on.

I managed to get Wonder from my library a couple weeks ago (put in for it at release, to give you an idea of how long that took). Delightful game, wish I had longer checkout period.
But yeah, can still expect to pay quite a bit for Super Mario Odyssey even now.
