What to do with this ugly raised patio area..

We have this rather unsightly raised brick patio area in a corner of our back garden. We moved into the house 6 years ago and thought one day we'd get rid of it/do something about it....
This is not our main patio, it's a space that my son plays basketball at.
It is ugly, but the raised area looks like it is part of the 1.5m high retaining wall that is holding up our garden. See pics. The 1.5m high wall is behind our garage thankfully so we don't see that, however we would if we brought the raised patio area down to the ground.
We do see the wall that has the steps leading up, that wall is 12m high, pic 4 As a quick fix I planted infront of it as you can see. I thought of covering that wall with slatted bamboo screening to just hide some of the brick!
The patio slabs are 75cm above the ground
Ideas etc welcome thanks!
