Real Genius:

Look to the right as Lazlo walks through the door (at about :20 into the clip), then again behind Val Kilmer as he's standing on his head (around 0:55)



It's definitely a Nishijin 'Model B'. Looks to be a 1976 vintage judging from the playfield plastics. (I owned a 1976 vintage as a kid)

Just last Sundays new episode of Dexter had a pachinko machine. I was talking about pachinko's and then all of the sudden what do you know, I see one on TV. Its when Dexter goes over to that kids Photo Gallery, you see it in the back.

In episode 109 of Futurama, Amy walks in with a hovering pachinko machine, exclaims "Oh Yeah! Pachinko break!" and plays the machine in a scene that lasts a good 5 seconds. The machine clatters and chimes and says with a Japanese accent, "Tokyo crazy balls, yes!".

In the TV Series "Touch", there is an entire subplot early in season 2 that revolves around a pachinko machine. The character specifically seeks out a vintage machine with "no electronics" for a particular purpose.

I do believe there is a thread around here somewhere from the person who supplied a modern machine for that show!!

Not a blockbuster but watching Ernest Saves Christmas with my kids and Ernest has one on the wall next to his front door...

Just happened to notice in an old Seinfeld rerun, episode 123, "The Seven". There is a vintage pachinko in the antique toy store Elaine gets a bike from.

While watching "Girls und Panzer der film" there are three of the girls in an arcade/shop and one is playing one of the three pachislots.

This is during the closing credits as everyone heads home after winning the big battle. There is also an extra called "clean closing" (no scrolling credits) on the disc where this is from.
