I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Never considered myself a racing games kind of dude, but as a kid I really enjoyed this one:



Aside from that, I also love the F-Zero games and wouldn't mind giving one of my kidneys for them to come back. I think F-Zero X is my favorite of the bunch, it plays like a dream (a 60fps N64 game!) and the OST is lovely too:

If only there is New Ridge Racer.
I'm also liking cute cartoony Mini Moto X game. looks like newer Atari Sprint with some style twist like racing car toys in some dioramas.

I want these to return btw :
- Ridge Racer, my all time fave, need more though. like 4, there is small simulation mode where you had motivation from the small stories.
- Racing lagoon, dubbed "racing RPG" by square when they are still king of RPG back in the old day.
- Auto Modellista, I like the graphic, so cool and looks different.
- NfS The Run is kind of okay, i enjoyed that game back before.

There is also turn based RPG for Initial D in GBA. good stuff <3 though it's japanese only game.
Anyway for toys-alike racing, I like Mini4wd battle in Yakuza games. it's even better than real brand tamiya's ever produced.

My favorite racers are wave race 64 and episode 1 racer but I wouldn't say those are unknown by any stretch. As for bringing something back there was this Yu-Gi-Oh racing game that were built a deck instead of just random pickups that was a super cool in concept but the actual vehicle handling was so awful that the game was basically unplayable. I would love a sequel or at least another attempt at a racing/card game hybrid.

I want it back so hard
I would be ok with a simple PC/Console port with proper analog stick or racing wheel support

It was so ahead for the time that it's still fun to play after almost 40 years

If rock n roll racing is non-famous, then I nominate destruction derby.

The first one. I finally tried the second one recently and it's almost as bad as thundertruck rally.

There was this game in the early 2000s called Mercedes-Benz World Racing that had some pretty huge open maps for that time and supported split screen on PC. Another game was Revolt for the N64 which I played a lot with my brothers. Required a RAMPak for 4 player splitscreen and decent performance.

My bring backs are:
Motorstorm, Driveclub and Metropolis Street Racer

Obscure racers are kind of my thing. These are some of my favorites- I had to import them from Japan. I'd love to see modern iterations of these in particular..
