That was a pretty good ID job on the vintage chmer01.

There is an episode of Monk which has a Nishijin Pachinko. The scene is of the office of Jason Alexanders character. It's a quick pan by so it helps to have a digital recorder but it is there. The bad part is that it looked like it was on the floor, don't they know that it will pick up carpet fibers and floor crud!
Those machines seem to pop up everywhere

Thank you. I realy like the vintage machines. The Nishijin machines made between 70-74 are my all time favorates. I can strip them down and rebuild them in a day or two. My wife seen this thread and called me a geek.

I saw a white Pulsar pachislo on the second hour of the first episode of Hotel Hell!!


And while trying to find one of these threads to post in I found 3 of the at least 6 threads like this so I thought I'd post the other ones I found to keep them in one place!!

Revenge

Pachinko's in movies

The other day I was watching an older show called Prototype This on Discovery and noticed they had a Nishijin hanging on the wall in their "lab". The episode I was watching was the personal airbag episode. I can't seem to find any good shots but they showed it quite a bit towards the end of the episode.

I Also saw a Nishijin hanging on the wall in the background of the show Final Offer on Discovery (can you guess which channel I like most. ) Something tells me that somewhere in the discovery prop house there is a Nishijin floating around as the 2 from the 2 shows were the same I think.

[MrGneiss]

Here, I found a bunch more threads!!

I was looking for the things I mentioned in this post.. (Guiding Light, GTA, Sports show..)

I spied a vintage in the latest 2 hour season premiere episode of Rookie Blue called "Blink;All By Her Selfie". The segment is one hour in, and is in the bar scene. Can't quite make out the center feature, but looks like a Model B. Not the best pics, but also too early for a youtube vid link to post, so here's a peek:

Looks like it is a chalice center on it. I'll post a pic of a similar one when I get a chance.

Someone on the Rookie Blue set likes pachinko/pachislo! This week there are pachislos in the scene where they are busting a gambling ring. The catch is they are Canadian police. How they got pachislos tied to gambling in Canada, ??? But it's a good show! We'll see if they have more this week.

I was watching American Pickers tonight, and saw a pachislo in the background on a shelf. I didn't get a pic, but it's in S5, E14 - California Kustom. Seems like I have have been seeing a lot of games on TV lately.

Angel had one in his apartment on the Rockford Files once.

Lock up on storage hunters had a few vintage machines in there
