Title: Documenting repair experiences with Hyperspace Arcade / Patrick Scott Patterson — evidence archive and documentary

I’m Colin Receveur. After a disputed arcade-monitor repair with Hyperspace Arcade / Patrick Scott Patterson, I started organizing the records from my experience and looking into other customers’ accounts.

My case involves a Wells Gardner K7000 chassis. Patterson stated that it had passed burn-in testing before returning it. I reported a pop and smoke after reinstalling it, and a subsequent technician described additional issues and repairs. Patterson disputes responsibility and maintains that he tested the chassis and offered warranty inspection. The correspondence, technician accounts, and his responses are included in the archive.

As I researched, I found other reports scattered across forums, eBay, Google, Yelp, and the BBB. I built PatrickScottPattersonReview.com to bring those accounts and their supporting material into one place.

The archive currently contains 26 published case files, with 9 additional accounts awaiting information before they can be fully documented. Reported issues include:

• Equipment allegedly not returned.
• Incomplete repairs or continued faults after return.
• Extended turnaround times and unanswered follow-ups.
• Disputes over refunds, missing parts, and packaging.

The evidence varies by case. Some include correspondence, payment screenshots, photographs, or technician accounts; others are public reviews with limited supporting documentation. Business responses, reported refunds and returns, and favorable experiences are retained.

I’m also producing a planned 24-part documentary series. Episode 1, “The Burn-In Claim,” covers my repair dispute. Its follow-up, “His Response vs. the Record,” addresses Patterson’s public response alongside the records presented in the video. Both are available now, and Episode 2 is planned for release within a week.

I’m a party to one of these disputes, so I want that clear from the start. The purpose of publishing the sources is to let people examine the record themselves, including disputed points and gaps.

Have you had a good or bad experience with Patrick or Hyperspace Arcade?

I’d welcome your account, supporting records, corrections, or an updated outcome. Successful repairs and resolved complaints matter, too. Please use the submission form for private documents rather than posting personal details here.

The House of the Dead is out in VR.

Thank you again for Time Crisis: we're now 294 on the Discord, and your bug reports and wishes shape every releases and updates.

This time you're in the Curien mansion, at real scale, in the game's own 3D, and the zombies walk right up to you. Your gloved hand holds the gun, and your shots land on what you hit (a zombie, a wall, or far away in the sky when you miss), with the red blood of the cabinets we had in Europe.

Coming next: Time Crisis II, Daytona USA, Dirt Dash, Top Skater, Sega Super GT 24h and Virtua Racing.

Time Crisis II is out in VR.

Thank you for House of the Dead last night: we're now 295 on the Discord, and your bug reports and wishes shape every release and update.

This time you're in the restaurant and the town square of the first stage, at real scale, in the game's own 3D, and the soldiers come right at you from behind tables, cars and doors. Take cover like on the cabinet: hold the pedal button, or crouch for real. Your gloved hand holds the gun, and your shots land on what you hit (a soldier, a wall, a car).

Coming next: Daytona USA, Dirt Dash, Top Skater, Sega Super GT 24h and Virtua Racing.

I have an arcade console (in a briefcase-style case) that I bought in Argentina, and I’m missing the original operating system. Just to clarify, I already downloaded the two images for my "Austar L01" from the internet, but they didn’t work. I’ve managed to get it running using "Reg Linux," but it doesn’t recognize the device’s controls. I need some help, please.

Wells-Gartner K4900 in a Joust cabinet. It’s got RGB, Ground, V and H Sync on a 6 pin connector. I don’t have a working game in it right now so I’d like to hook something up to it to be able to test the monitor and fine tune the adjustments.

One week to go - don't miss out!

Hello! I’m currently looking for an og bromley manual for my Colorama that I got a few months ago. My Colorama currently doesn’t run and after replacing the transformer I’m pretty sure it’s another issue that the manual or maybe someone on here can help me resolve. I tried buying the one pictured on Coin Op Parts .com but they sent me the wrong manual and just straight up scammed me. Any help is appreciated!

So im building my last cabinet and i want it to be a vertical one, real crt. Among all the games it has to have, pacman,mr do,galaga and so on, circus charlie has a special place in my harth. So i made an hd remake with the help of claude, so if you hate ai slop, move on, but if you dont care keep reading. All 7 stages are done, art need tweaking as well as some sprites. but its fully playable you can find the git at https://github.com/abispac/CircusCharlieHD if you want to help. PLayable on windows and mac, mac signed so no warning come up. Feel free to coperate and fix the game to make it more arcade like but in hd.

The first image here showed up as an add for a garden company today. Anyone else think this looks like a modern human Q*Bert game?

Hello everyone,

I recently picked up this Ms. Pac-man arcade cabinet in non-working condition. I was able to get it powered up and somewhat running by cleaning and reseating the daughter board and a few of the other socketed chips.

I can solder and make repairs, but am inexperienced at diagnosing where the issue may be coming from. Has anyone seen a similar issue or know a common culprit for this type of glitch? Looking for some advice to get this thing running again.

Thanks!

Tetris Dekaris is a Japan exclusive arcade cabinet. I was hoping there would be somewhere in Tokyo that would have it. Does anybody know for certain?

So cool as a kid growing up in the 90s
