I've asked these questions in other ways and places and I'd like to
hear what other people on the Research and EE lists think.
There are many video game players of diverse ages, genders, languages,
and locations. How could Wikimedia editing be made into an appealing
activity for people who are currently video gamers? How could
Wikimedia market itself to gamers, including console, LAN, FPS,
MMORPG, and mobile gamers?

There are already some gamification ideas out there (google/wp for
WP:GAME and such. WP:CUP is most popular, and competitions like
Wikipedia Loves Monuments and such have some fans as well. They are
certainly not as widely promoted as they could be, and the game
companies are blind to an opportunity of offering rewards to players who
expand Wikipedia content about their games...
