A 2017 study conducted by a team of Canadian neuropsychologists found that playing Super Mario 64 increased grey matter in the brains of older adults, potentially helping to combat dementia and other neurological disorders. According to the study:
"The video game experimental group engaged in a 3D-platform video game training over a period of 6 months. [...] After training, a within-subject increase in grey matter within the hippocampus was significant only in the [video game] training group, replicating results observed in younger adults."
