My 12 yo with dyscalculia plays on the WII and PS3 during the weekends and school vacations. He plays a 1st person shooter game where he drives a jeep. After playing that game, he slips over to a racing game and experiences problems only because the controls are different. He corrects between the games fairly easily. He also plays an NCAA football game.

He plays trumpet and types 40 wpm. He reads maps very well and has no problems with locations and geography. Sometimes he has to stop and think about his right and left. Video games are not a problem.
