Final Fantasy Anthology: If you reach the first save point on CD 1 (FF5), You see a black screen and the play freezes.

Final Fantasy Chronicles: Here you see some texture errors and flickering on the FF4-CD.

Final Fantasy Origins: The Gameplay in Final Fantasy III, as soon as the random battle encounters and you find yourself in battle, the brightness degree is changed.

Final Fantasy VII: If the fight in the Mako reactor on CD1 begins, a flickering black square over the character appears.

Final Fantasy VIII: If you enter into a fight on the World-map, approx 50% the screen goes black and the remainder just looks damaged.
