I spent the entire day on Friday cooking for my dad’s birthday party, so naturally I was beat on Saturday morning. Feeling lazy to get out of bed, I had a brain wave there and then to come up with map of popular video game stores in the Klang Valley. The idea came from the fact that while there are popular stores that have good testimonies (we don’t have big chains like Best Buy, Gamestop, EB Games in Malaysia but instead rely on smaller, independent retailers), not many people know where they are located.
So here’s a map that I’ve created, thanks to the Google Maps service, of popular video game stores in Kuala Lumpur (KL, the capital city of Malyasia) and the surrounding area known as the Klang Valley. Criteria for addition into this map is pretty simple, good customer testimonies in the Lowyat.net Forum, perhaps the largest online community in Malaysia. Check it out:

Hey, I know you wrote this article like years ago but I kinda stumbled into it and I’m flying off to KL next week (that would be July 12th) and I was wondering if you know, and if you happen to know any Game shops in KL that sells old PS2 games. I am desperately searching for an old game to satisfy my gaming desire. Hope you can fill me in on the info. Thanks yeah. 🙂 Appreciate the help in advance.
And I forgot to mention that the game has to be original. Thanks again, 🙂
Hi Tatsumi,
You can try out the shop in Bangsar Shopping Center, it’s called Playtime. Be sure to call first before going to the shop.
