Joaquín Selva
The founder as a proud newlywed.

My Dpad was founded by Joaquín Selva in 2016 as a response to the lack of quality content about mobile games.

Joaquín has been playing video games as long as he can remember, from messing around with DOS command lines and 16-bit consoles to playing games on his gaming PC and Nintendo Switch. Since its founding, My Dpad has expanded to writing about video game news, tips, analysis, and recommendations for PC, and mobile gamers (and occasionally, console gamers). My Dpad is perfect for people who want to immerse themselves in video game content that caters to gamers of all stripes (well, except for Gamergaters).

Whether you’re looking for a guide to setting up an emulator, news about the hottest games on the market, or tips on free (and legal) games, stick around, and you might just find that My Dpad is the place for you.

Some links on this site may be affiliate links, which give the site a commission on products purchased after clicking on those links. These links do not raise the price of purchase for you in any way, as the commission is diverted from the retailer’s revenue. The use of these links help limit the number of intrusive ads you have to see, and readers should know that any products linked to from My Dpad would have been recommended on their own merits anyways. My Dpad no longer uses affiliate links, though I know some remain in various articles that were published in the past.
