Not gonna be the moral police here, but if people are not motivated to spend their money in a charitable way then we really have no right to criticise them at all. Not even if our lives are beyond reproach. I believe in their freedom to do so as long as they don't hurt other people. I'd rather people do this than spend on cigarettes, makeup, cruel food practices which are expensive like foie gras and bird's nest or shark's fin, or even hardcore partying (I believe 600 a night for hardcore party people is not uncommon). As far as things go, spending money on a video game like Ayakashi that is a) not violent, b) not discriminatory in the sense that it represents many different cultures from around the world and even depicts Shuten and Ibaraki in an unambiguous homosexual relationship and c) has really high standards for art (in my personal opinion anyway) is quite worth the investment. Entertainment is a core human need, and this is a relatively harmless and maybe even good way to spend it when you consider the alternatives.
