During the 'We got one' scene in Ghostbusters we see 2 video games and a pinball machine but does anyone know what they are?

@user14111 Just updated, thanks for pointing the out. I've always referred to video games as arcade, don't know if it's a UK thing? Anyone else like to comment?

Yeah, also UK here and I've only ever heard "arcade machines" over here used to refer to video game machines, not pinball machines. Most arcades here (at least when I frequented them in the 80's/90's) were mainly just full of video games and sometimes gambling machines. Pinball machines were more common in seaside arcades, but those also tended to have a bigger mix of other machine types (including claw machines, coin pushers, etc).

well as you see here:
https://arcadespecialties.com/arcade-games-for-sale/vintage-arcade-games/missile-command/
that's definitely the first machine shown. The issue identifying it could have arisen from the fact that many of those games went through cabinet and art revisions constantly, and very well could have contributed to minor issues causing inconsistency.
Additionally, part of the reason pinball might not have been included in many arcades, was that new york and chicago and so on, some of the bigger major cities, had actually added pinball to prohibition lists from the 40s to the 70s, which would mean there's a very high chance any arcades built/renovated during that time, would have foregone pinball in an effort to avoid excess loss, had they been nationally prohibited.

The pinball machine is called Star Gazer and is made by Stern:
The third machine appears to be Missile Command (also 1980).

From arcade-museum.com:
It's Missile Command, Star Castle and Star Gazer. There was already another thread on this not too long ago. There's speculation that the Missle Command is converted into a Ms. Pac, due to the tinge of blue in the upper right of the Marquee. However you can clearly see Missle Command on the screen.

@user14111 Just updated, thanks for pointing the out. I've always referred to video games as arcade, don't know if it's a UK thing? Anyone else like to comment?

Yeah, also UK here and I've only ever heard "arcade machines" over here used to refer to video game machines, not pinball machines. Most arcades here (at least when I frequented them in the 80's/90's) were mainly just full of video games and sometimes gambling machines. Pinball machines were more common in seaside arcades, but those also tended to have a bigger mix of other machine types (including claw machines, coin pushers, etc).

Ah the seaside amusements. 2p waterfalls and fag reek, the 80s were great!
