Does anyone know any movies with video game machine cameos or theme relating to video games from the 80s?

I only know:
1. Tron (1982)
2. War Games (1983)
3. Joy Sticks (1983)

There was one movie that I had a vague memory of. It was about a teen who was really good a playing video games...that's all I remember

Definitely The Wizard w/ Fred Savage. I always looked up to Lucas. I love the Powerglove

I actually owned my favorite, "Paperboy" for a year. Kept it in my garage, like a fantasy to have the key to the change compartment, open it to get to the volume, jack it up. Man, that was awesome.

Hitting the breakdancers or the kid on the skateboard, or the fat guy holding the beer.

Gotta get that thing back someday.

What about "Midnight Madness"?

Michael J. Fox plays David Naughton's (guy from American Werewolf in London) younger brother. He has to play the Star fighter (Star Wars) video game in order to make Leon appear on the screen with the next clue.
