It's funny you mention arcade racer because I've been taking stock of how many genres have been completely disappearing from the games industry and it's quite a lot. I partly blame consoles for this but it seems any game type that they can't monetise the fuck out of with micro-transactions gets ignored. The games we do have do a fairly shit job of mimicking these genres back when they were reasonably popular.
