Line 174:
** Manfred von Karma attempts a convoluted version of this {{spoiler|despite having ''already killed'' the person he wanted revenge on, adopting and psychologically torturing his victim's son}}.
** In ''Ace Attorney Investigations'', Franziska likes to [[Whip It Good|whip Edgeworth and/or Gumshoe]] for other people's shortcomings.
* In ''[[Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice]]'', {{spoiler|Mao decides that ravaging the human world would be a better revenge for his father's death then going after Aurum, the one who caused it, reasoning that as a super hero, and one of said world's defenders, it would cause him far more pain then his own death. However, Aurum actually ''wants'' him to attack the human world, as it'll give another chance to display his heroics. Whether Mao actually goes through with it or not depends on what ending you get.}}
* In ''[[Xenosaga]]'', Albedo torments Momo so that he can get to Jr. by proxy.
* Subverted in the sequel to [[No More Heroes]]... sort of. {{spoiler|Travis is confronted by an [[Emergency Transformation]] form of Letz Shake, the well-known [[Bait and Switch Boss]] of the first game who was killed by Henry before Travis could get to him. Travis points out that it was Henry who killed Shake, but it turns out that he had ''already'' gotten to and beaten Henry, and just wants to take down Travis too, just for the hell of it.}}
