Mori started gaming 39 years ago, and amassed a large number of subscribers through her YouTube channel, where she has released four posts a month since launching the channel in 2015.

Over the decades, Mori has collected an array of games and consoles, which span from the 80’s to today. However, the Nintendo 64 remains one of her all-time favorite consoles, and titles the "Grand Theft Auto" series as one of her favorite games. 

Upon being asked how she got involved in streaming videos, More replied, “I felt that if I started to play games, life would be really interesting and I wouldn’t have to think about unnecessary things. I’m glad to have lived till this age and I’m glad that I’ve learned how to play video games. I’m enjoying life.”
