Spirit’s mechanics, although not common, tend to pop up in fighting games more. KOFXIV seems to be the most recent example, where you can spend a meter to enter max mode which for a limited time enhances the effects of your special moves (among other things).

Although not a straight example, they cary the same theme of risk versus reward. Risk wasting your resources for a timed power boost.
