After years of telling parents to get their child.young person off video games, it turns out they're generally good for mental wellbeing. [Obviously sensibly thought-through and age-appropriate etc etc].
Game are good for you!

We know, we know, this is pretty common knowledge for many of us. But new research from Oxford University has used actual gameplay data for the first time to prove it.
How else are games good for us?https://t.co/q2IxR6zbjY
A decent article highlighting research surrounding video games and mental health using real playtime data. Worth a read ? https://t.co/UlNmn8VgbJ

With our games we try to find the bond between beauty and madness. And we might be doing it right.

Researchers find playing social video games such as #AnimalCrossing have a positive impact on #MentalHealth, with gamers reporting increased #wellbeing. This is the first study of its kind to use actual gameplay data. https://t.co/8bRiw5hw8E.
Really pleased to see @ShuhBillSkee’s research on video games and well-being getting coverage. It’s huge that Nintendo is actually sharing data to let good research get done; it’s ridiculous that so much policy has been based on so little evidence. https://t.co/1SeixAUmea

There's a billion things our parents claimed were good/bad for us and it was the complete opposite. Add video games to the list. https://t.co/BjGQ2gzVMG
