OTAKUYA Brand Story
OTAKUYA’s journey began in 2017 as a small online gaming store on the Shopee platform, staffed by just two passionate individuals. Fueled by our love for video games and unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction, we embarked on our venture in the world of e-commerce.
Despite limited resources in the early days, we held a firm belief that by delivering high-quality products and exceptional service, we could carve out a place for ourselves in the competitive gaming market. This belief has guided us on a path of steady growth, transforming from a modest team into one of Malaysia's most recognized video game retail brands.
Milestones: From 10,000 Orders to 80,000 Orders
2019 marked a pivotal moment for OTAKUYA. That year, we surpassed 10,000 orders for the first time, a testament to our relentless dedication. But this was only the beginning. As our business expanded and our brand gained traction, the number of orders we processed grew exponentially. By 2024, OTAKUYA had achieved the remarkable milestone of processing over 80,000 orders in a single year, while also building a loyal customer base of over 200,000 followers.

Innovation: Launch of Value-Guaranteed Trade-In Services and Enhanced Product Warranty Program
In 2025, OTAKUYA introduced two innovative services: the Value-Guaranteed Trade-In Service and an enhanced Product Warranty Program.
These initiatives offer customers greater flexibility and value, enabling them to trade in their older games for new ones at a guaranteed value and providing more affordable ways to enjoy a wider range of games.
Our enhanced warranty program ensures that purchases are fully protected, giving customers peace of mind. Both services have been widely embraced by customers and have significantly contributed to our business growth.
