Flash Point

Flash Point also contains a power-on pattern, and uses it for every level you play for the entire game, and if you continue. If you fail to continue, the next game continues where the failed level ended in the power-on pattern. Again, unless you are playing a bootleg without NVRAM, you must clear the NVRAM to get the power-on pattern back.
