MEET THE DOCTOR
KEITH SWANSON
Arcade Doctor — Orlando, Florida
Former GORF World Record Holder · 20+ Years of Experience
THE STORY
MORE THAN A
REPAIR TECH
I've been obsessed with arcade machines since Space Invadershit arcades in 1978. What started as a passion for playing quickly turned into a need to understand how these machines worked — and how to fix them when they didn't.
Over the years I worked for several amusement companies as a lead technician, building the skills and experience that now go into every repair I make. After 20+ years in the field, I've seen virtually every failure mode on virtually every machine.
I treat every machine as if it were my own — with the goal of getting it running 100% perfectly. Not “good enough.” Perfect.
Based in Orlando, Florida, I serve collectors, game rooms, businesses, and anyone who loves these machines as much as I do. If it's an arcade or pinball machine from 1978 to present, I can fix it.
Keith set the GORF world record in 1981 — a milestone that cements his standing not just as a technician, but as a true arcade legend. He didn't just fix the machines. He mastered them.
