Writer suggests ways for Wii to attract the hardcore

Ben Richardson of Games Radar has a new article up based on the recent statements of Shigeru Miyamoto to Gamepro. The article deals with the many ways through which the Wii could attract a larger fanbase of hardcore gamers.

The whole thing’s pretty accurate in its assessment of what needs be done. For instance, Richardson suggests that online gaming be a bigger staple to attract more gamers. While that’s closer to improbable at this early stage, the idea of making a place for Miis to congregate and interact is definitely something we’re digging.

He also suggests more gamer-friendly Wii motion controls (definitely needed), and gamer-focused Wii channels (Yes please!), which would definitely bring more to the Wii in terms of strengthening their already large market.

In any case, you’d best get it from Richardson himself over at the read link.
