Yes, believe it or not. As the title says, a recent study that seeks to improve the methods of practice for surgeons has revealed that playing the Nintendo Wii has some unexpected benefits. Surgeons who use the popular Nintendo console usually have very good performance at work in the operating room.
Playing with the Nintendo Wii seems to have a positive effect that improves coordination between our eyes and our hands, while also improving spatial attention of the person.
Recently tests conducted one month duration. A group of surgeons graduates implemented Wii sessions to your workout, while another similar group did not. As a result, it was found that the group that made normal practices and "practiced" playing the Wii did better than not played the popular console.
The research is undoubtedly very interesting, and probably use the Wii also can be applied to improve performance in other types of jobs, mostly in those requiring high accuracy, great care and a good deal of coordination.
