Quality arcade racers from major 3rd parties are gone, ridge racer, outrun, daytona , Sega Rally , burnout (paradise doesn't count it's from PS3) , motorstorm  they all disappeared in 8th gen, while need for speed gets review bombed what happen to that series? miss midnight club too. The arcade genre from major 3rd parties need a comeback. arcade racers are only made by indie developers and it scares me like indie developers doing shmups too. bTW cave, 5pb, treasure are not indie shmup developers .

Yes, issue is they need to figure out how and so far they haven't figured out how. Gran Turismo has the right idea I think. One game for the duration of the gen with regular updates. 

EA flooded the market with a ton of shite and then went on to kill Burnout

Sega Rally, Daytona and Ridge Racer died along with arcades.

Motorstorm had just bad luck and then they messed up the launch of DriveClub.

Racers don't have a story and the ones that do are just so boring / cliche. Stick to the pure racing. Bring on the tracks, bring on customisation, clubs, liveries, crash mode from Burnout, add content including AI simulation to drive whilst you are away and build it like MK where you have shit tons of unlockables for every little thing you do.
