I got my hands on a unidentified Namco System 11 game (hardware based on the Sony Playstation).
By swapping the boards with another known working system 11 game, I could determined that the issue lied in the CPU board.

I quickly found a missing signal on a LS08 with my logic probe. Following the trace I saw it was connected to the main CPU.
In fact the board took a shock (poor storage) and around 30 pins were desoldered on the main CPU:

I fixed it using hot air and the game then booted:
