Car racing didn't really die, both sim and arcade. Now 100% arcade racers did die, and when Wipeout was pulled out of mothballs, ported to PS4 and didn't sell, we can see that there's simply not enough demand because new generation doesn't understand putting effort into games.

when it became about driving regular cars on actual tracks/roads instead of crazy cars on crazy tracks with weapons/gadgets

Driving regular cars on actual tracks/roads cranked up to crazy levels and your car being a literal weapon > both of those things though.

>>389576843
the GOAT racing game. this will never not be a fact.
>>
>>389575531
Frankly, I never liked weapons/gadgets. I can dig crazy cars and tracks, but as soon as some shitty rockets or ice beams or shells come into play, I am out.
>>
>>389574207
Arcade has died but sim racing lives on.
>>
the kids that played them grew up and got actual cars
>>
tfw you'll never get another F-Zero game because half of its concepts were amalgamated into Mario Kart 8

It's so sad how true this is and the best they can do for an actual F-Zero rep is a Captain Falcon Mii and a cardboard cutout of his vehicle

Cars/planes are ten times more fun than the gay-ass violence.

Because all genres except fps and open world has died.
>>
>>389574207
It didn't die. But if you're wondering why there is so much, much less of it nowadays. The answer is relatively simple.
HD production standards.

Doing an average racing game in HD is more expensive than doing your average other game in HD.
And cheap mario kart indie knockoffs kind of oversaturated the other end of the spectrum already.

At this point I'd settle for a GX remaster with online play. A track editor and X cup could be nice too.

Am I missing something here?

>>389574207
Because people don't give a shit about the absolute best genre of video games for some reason.
