Toefur: You're in luck! Your question inspired me to replay my old copies of SQ4EGA and SQ1 remake EGA. So now I can post some screenshots here for you.

WARNING: these pictures will take a while to load for dialup users. If you happen to be one, you might want go grab a sandwich.

Moderators, if you want to turn these into links, feel free: I just typed the post this way and am currently too sleepy to bother changing it.

Spoilers below for SQ1 and SQ4, but I doubt anyone will care.

Pictures from SQ1 remake EGA:


The Arcada's scientific data cartridge library


Roger in the Arcada airlock/spacesuit room


The escape pod


This warp-speed effect is different in the VGA version, but I once saw a magazine showing the EGA effect in a VGA screenshot.


These acid drips are a pain: fortunately I managed to apply the NewRisingSun patch to this EGA version


Buying a droid at Ulence Flats


Escaping the Deltaur

Pictures from SQ4 EGA:


The SQ4 title logo: unlike the VGA logo it's based on the original SQ1EGA box art.


The subtitle.


Vohaul's recorded message


Roger falling through the time rip. No multicolored tunnel here!


Roger ponders stealing a timepod


The planet Estros


Another hologram of Vohaul


Roger in the Galaxy Galleria mall


Roger and Roger Jr. shake hands at the end

One thing I did notice that the SQ4 EGA animation is a lot cleaner-looking than the VGA animation: Roger has visible eyes when he walks, instead of a red blob for a face, for example.
