How do you ID a PCB when it has no discernible ID markings? I have several boards that were given to me but I have no idea what they are...

Okay. Here are the boards I haven't been able to ID. Any help is greatly appreciated.

There's no discernible markings because they're all bootlegs.

First one's Commando...
Second one's another Capcom.
Third one's a bootleg Taito -- nothing good like bubble bobble.
Last one's probably a pool game on scramble-ish hardware.
 
Thanks, Hudson!

So, is there a way to figure out what the pinouts are for the edge connectors? I have no clue as to how to find a schematic for these....

POW should be JAMMA...

The capcom's probably capcom 56, but it could be jamma... if the last 3 pins are all tied together (ground) then it's capcom

Taito's standard taito...

The pool game should just be Konami, but I've seen boots with other 18-pin pinouts.
