Why do nip devs not seem to like or make racing games and 3D platformers? I don't know of any doujins devs making games in these genres at all, and aside from a few exceptions from the big nip devs like 'tendo, Sonic, Gran Turismo, etc, they don't seem to make them at all anymore.
>>733724027Those genres are niche, so if any get made, they're never breaking the language barrier.
>>733724027I know I've seen some games in both genres from doujin devs over the years, but the only one I remember is Gensou Skydrift.
>>733724027Only little kids and autists play those genres, real men play rpg maker slop with tons of titties
>>733724027>doujins devswhat's that?
Racing games have become more niche in general. Arcade is dead, and sims only appeal to autists.
>>733729613It's like indies who post shit on itch.io but asian.
>>7337240273D platformers are just not a popular genre anymore, and even then, Japan still makes Mario, Sonic, they made Astro Bot. so basically all the big ones. the only other devs really making 3D platformers are indie devs, who are just copying Japanese games of days past.and as others said, racing games are pretty niche as well, but Japan makes the two highest grossing racing franchises in Mario Kart and Gran Turismo.
>>733729228The thing is these genres have the potential to be great neurotypical entertaining for mature gentlemen such as ourselves if japs would just make big titty games in them.

>>733734632Is that not just another remake of the original Daytona USA? Which is cool and all, but I wouldn't consider it a new game, which is what I was referring to with the "they don't seem to make them at all anymore" part. All the big Japanese devs, but especially SEGA, used to shit out a ton of them.That said, it looks like it was outsourced to China or something anyways.
