The Max Planck Institute for Human Development and Charité University Medicine St. Hedwig-Krankenhaus have discovered that video games are beneficial for your brain's "spatial orientation, memory formation and strategic planning as well as fine motor skills."
Berlin scientists tasked adult subjects to play Super Mario 64 "over a period of two months for 30 minutes a day." An MRI showed brain volume quantified in players who didn't typically play games, while folks who played games "showed increases of grey matter, in which the cell bodies of the nerve cells of the brain are situated."
Additionally, the report notes, the more someone actually wanted to play games, the more positive the effects actually had on someone. Simone Kühn, senior scientist on the study, asserts that video games can be used therapeutically for patients suffering from schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder or neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s dementia.
