Got it.

But just a small point. For GTA and Sport games, that would be "RPG elements" but they would be propper RPG. RPG involves story telling and choices (and character progession is a prop inside), but I see the element of JRPG you don't like is the turn based part, but then you can choose the action-rpg.

I would like more racing, platforming, action-adventure games that focus either on SP or in local Co-OP.

In a way, the career that you make in a sports game is a story you are collaboratively telling with the game, just like in a Pokemon game. And these games involve a lot of choices: who to hire, who to fire, who will play, what competition will be the focus. The main difference I see is the Theme: one is a Sports game; the other is a Fantasy/Adventure game. Both involve playing the role of some entity: either a character or a team.

Btw, I also like those genres. But what specific Racing games you feel are missing?

I see your point in the career making, but as games goes it isn't a sport rpg, it's a sport game with RPG element. RPG involves a lot more than what you described in there. Because even though you write your way to the championship, there isn't really a story going on.

On racing games I like sega rally, and love gran turismo. So I would like more simulators for console.
