A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

So what you are saying is that it is only a marketing move to appeal to poorer people?

Frugality does not imply a lack of wealth.

We cannot get it because we are not rich but rich people aren't frugal they don't wait a videogame to drop 5$ in price to buy it

They don't have to, but still can purchase the lower priced game, to get the same sale as you or me. Hence, frugality.
