Thanks Laschek. ;D
Btw. can you tell me some more details about this audio amp thing? :oops:
I guess it is that missing black thing in the top right corner.

That black thing is actually a heatsink. Screwed to it is the amp. Just ask that dutch which one it is (what is written on it)  ;)

I found my good old acid damaged Moonwaker/Clutch Hitter pcb, I guess it has something similar, but to be on the safe side I asked the dutch for identification numbers. ;D

The sound amp and the heat sink was replaced(not by me) ;D




Meanwhile I checked some videos on youtube from this game and I had a feeling, that I've already heard it's music somewhere.
It's a C64 game, who will find out which one? :D
Some clues:
The Soundtrack from the arcade game
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X9egyCAMZw
And the original video from Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO) called Rydeen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M2zQjRF1vE&feature=related

I also realized, that this game is similar to C64 Loco, which was one of my favourites

Another one:






I've got this today , there is a "Cowboy" tag on the cage of the pcb, I think it could be Indian Battle, because Wild Western looks different. It is Taito pcb with the number AA017756A, I found one match with google for a game called Ozma Wars, but it does not look like the pic on Crazykong.com.


Any ideas?

There are 2 letters "RF" and a number from 1-7.

There's a Ring Fighter, but this is supposed to have RFT on those labels. But maybe the T stands for table and you have an upright version  ???
Best way would be to read out the roms and RomID them.

If you can post a little more info about the board, like what kind of processors (8080, Z80, etc), the size of the EPROM's (2708, 2716, 2732, etc), that might help too :)

The middle pcb has the number AA017757 which is matching with Lunar Rescue in Ully's chart.
Still don't know what is that RF on the roms and on the Taito sticker. ???

Your rom pcb and middle pcb (AA017757) are standard Taito Space Invaders hardware pcbs. You will find these on Space Invaders, SI part2, Lunar Rescue and tonens of other 8080 hardware games... your rom pcb at least has been modified in a few ways, and i have a feeling that the big bundle of grey wires from the top pcb go to various points on the cpu pcb.

Your top pcb is very interesting, it contains a whole other bank of 8k ram, and an 8035.. i can't think why they would hack this set so much, but i'm fairly sure this is a factory hack that taito did, or at least, one of its distributers... From the age and technology i would say it could be a Taito version of Sheriff.

I can tell you that it is NOT Taito Gunman (cowboy them).

Oh, and Taito labels from the late 70's and very early 80's that have lettering on them usually don't correspond to the english name of the game, so RF might be a red herring...

I have LOTS of taito pcbs and work on them all the time, if you want the pcb investigating properly i'd love to buy it or look at it on the bench :)

you figured out that this is the game in the roms?

I'm sure that the Indian has 8 Battle eproms (8 roms) 2716, because I have a layer
