This is not from TV or movies, but here's a pic of MJ playing pinball. Was apparently a big pinball and arcade guy. The table he's playing seems to be Bally's Space Invaders...

I recall seeing some in the movie MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE 1986 in the dinner and I think one kills a guy.

here I found this:In the game room of DIXIE BOY truck stop, they had a Bally Night Rider pinball game, and a Williams Pokerino
------------
:D ;) Thanx a lot for mentioning Stephen King's: Trucks (The short story).

I saw a Flight 2000 in the background of an episode of Baggage Battles. But Baggage Battles is a terrible show and so I didn't want to encourage it by taking a snapshot.

Just saw a High Speed on the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. Yep, there's no mistaking that one. How it's not on the pingeek site, I've no idea

well, they don't update their site. For the movies, last update 24.10.2014. and Mysterious Skin still has a ? although I did send them a mail with the name of the machine.

for anyone who caught the episode of Storage Hunters UK set in Glasgow (where I live) this week, there was a White Water, Wheel of Fortune and Meteor hidden in one of the crates. Interestingly, my friend who rents machines for a living happens to own all three. And after some digging (though not through him as he's probably signed an NDA or something) I found out... they are his. Rented to the TV company for the day to fill a crate. Very interesting.

Another example of pinball fans exposing Storage Hunters for the staged nonsense it it :p

I saw a show called "The Liquidator" about a guy who owns a liquidation store and buys and sells stuff. Anyway, there was a Haunted House he was selling on the show and they dubbed all the sounds from the pinball table. Kinda strange, but I guess they want to make sure no one will sue. On another episode a different person was selling a Kiss pinball machine with the faces on the side art blurred out and on the backglass was a piece of paper that said Rock n' Roll pinball machine.

Edit: Found out I forgot there was a Williams Funhouse beside Haunted House at one point.

in the latest episode of The Mentalist.....
Flight 2000
The Getaway
and the third one....... I'm not sure, it was never in focus enough but backglass looked like BK2000 but it also seemed to me that it had DMD but in that case it is not BK.

So, who here's seen The Theory of Everything? Near enough to the start of the movie, there's a scene in a bar that prominently features some young rapscallions playing some kind of EM. I think the name of the machine was visible, but didn't actually see what it was (I was too excited otherwise!).
