My son has been playing various Mario games since age 5. He can hold his own on Mario Party and has finished Odyssey. When we were kids, I was playing GTA, Mortal Kombat etc, so my childhood wasn't necessarily a good example.

That being said, his reading and math abilities are quite good and we attribute that to videogames, and a healthy dose of Mo Willems books.
