A summary
- Brain Health: There was a study done on older adults who played Super Mario 64 for 30 minutes a day, five days a week, for six months. The researchers found increases in three of the major areas of the brain: the prefrontal cortex, the right hippocampus, and the cerebellum.
- Prefrontal Cortex: This part of the brain is responsible for decision making, personality, cognitive planning and social behaviour. I’m sure you can imagine how Super Mario 64 would help a players brain plan ahead, analyze how objects can be used and how to interact with them.
- Right Hippocampus: This is where we get short-term and long-term memory, as well as information processing and consolidation. The study showed that navigating a 3D world caused this part of the brain to grow.
