Cognitive Development

After reviewing Nintendo's website for their game "Brainage" I do think that it will actually improve cognitive development. I have never played the game but from the sounds of it and what I have heard, it really does test you and make you challenge yourself. I think the fact that it makes you read the phrases out loud is key because not only are you using you brain quickly but you are also using multiple senses at once. The fact that it tests you at a rapid pace really exercises your brain. This goes along with the "use it or lose it" concept we talked about in class. I would recommend parents to buy their adolescents this game because it does test them and give them skills and knowledge but it also makes it fun and competitive for them.
