NES Inconsistency: Item Pickups

I don't know how long this has been in, but I got the LoZ Collector's Edition for the cube recently and I've been playing Zelda 1 on it. There is one thing I noticed that's different from the way ZC acts, and it's the fact that in Zelda 1, you cannot pick up items until after they stop flickering when they appear.

How is this a bug in limbo?

Some NES Inconsistency bugs will require a lot of work or possibly rewrite to fix and they are trying to get a stable release together, so it was decided that some NES Inconsistency bugs would be moved here to be repaired in the next version after the stable release.
