I'm best at shooters and cart racers like Mario Kart.

Sports games generally are vary hard to master, especially the later sports games. It takes quick reflexes, adjusting coaching strategy, quick thinking and a ton of fatigue to win at them. Sometimes, even at their easiest setting. Also it depends on the game. "Jorden VS Bird" NES is a terrible sports game in my opinion. the only sports game I don't get fatigued in is Golf. like Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 and higher years
I recently found that other genres don't get me as frustrated as most sports games do. But in all honestly a lot of people enjoy the challenge sports games have to offer. because sports games as created to be unfair all the time.

Hmmm, I had to think about this. There aren’t many genres I absolutely suck at, but there’s not many I excel at either.
Worst:
3D Action (Devil May Cry, Bayonetta) - I stunk at the first DMC, and similar games just don’t hold my interest. Strangely, this category doesn’t seem to include games like God of War, apparently because that’s more of a beat-em-up style.
Driving Simulation (Gran Turismo) - Racing games just don’t interest me. I do ok at arcade-style racing like Outrun, but I’m awful at simulation-style. I rented Gran Turismo 2 many years ago and HATED it. I could barely get through the trial races.
Strategy (Fire Emblem, Command & Conquer) - I like games like this ok, but I usually spend WAY too long just biding my time, building up my resources, then get ambushed.
Music/Rhythm - I find games like this repetitive and boring, which probably contributes to the fact that I’m not good at them.
Best:
2D Platforming - This was always my strong suit. Narrow platforms over bottomless pits? Not a problem, especially if I get in a “zone”
Side-scrolling beat-em-up - Arcade TMNT, Simpsons, X-Men, Double Dragon...I’m usually pretty good at getting through them with minimal lives lost.

I remember being handed the controller to play a demo for one of the Watch Dogs entries near its introduction, perhaps six or seven years ago. The other person thought how something as basic as the game's first enemy encounter had me failing after not knowing what to do in the slightest. At the time, I had never really played a game requiring me to aim and shoot a gun from any camera perspective. Of course I was bad.
What kinds of genres players are or aren't skilled at mostly comes down to what sorts of games that play most often. For instance, here is just a small number of genres I lack experience in: 4X, arena shooter, management simulation, and vehicle simulation. And the reason for that is because I tend to not play these types of games.
Admitting that I'm skilled at certain genres feels odd, since I feel like I'm an average player in most regards. I suppose I'm most adept at traditional rhythm games—at least, more than the typical player.
