It was in the scene where the copper goes in to the drug dealer's premises and topples over an arcade game. There is enough of the pinball machine to see it is a Gottlieb. When the copper actually topples the arcade game you can see the front of the pinball machine cabinet - unmistakably a Cue Ball Wizard (OK, I did hit the pause button).

Funnily enough I did not even notice a Statesman...

I was watching an episode of star trek voyager 2 nights ago and they had time traveled back to the late 90's.
anyway while the ceo of a computer company was talking he was also playing a Fire Power.
there were also a couple of back boxes with back glasses installed and lit up hanging on the walls of his office.

Had a brief power outage right after the Cue Ball Wizard footage, so I missed the next two machines!

I will have to see if it is online now.
