Print Club (プリクラ, Purikura), also known as PrintCircle (プリサークル, Purisākuru or プリクル, Purikuru), is a minigame in Yakuza 5 and Yakuza Kiwami. It is located in Club SEGA in every city except Tsukimino, where it is instead located in the bowling alley Northern Lanes.
Gameplay
The player is allowed to take three pictures per session and is given four backgrounds to choose from. To get a successful photo, the character must start posing at the right time, and three seconds are given before each picture is taken to do so. There are four poses; each face button corresponds to a specific pose, and each pose has different timing for a successful shot. Once all three pictures are taken, one of them can be added to a photo book.
Yakuza 5
Kazuma Kiryu, Taiga Saejima, Haruka Sawamura, Shun Akiyama, and Tatsuo Shinada all have differing sets of poses and timings for each pose. When a picture is selected, there is an option to scribble pre-selected text onto it, depending on the protagonist and selected background. There are nine total backgrounds: three general backgrounds and six local backgrounds. Nagasugai, Tsukimino, Sotenbori, and Kineicho have one each, while Kamurocho has two, with the local background available depending on if the photo is being taken at the Nakamichi Street or Theatre Square location. The Nakamichi St location has a Tenkaichi Street gate background available while the Theatre Square location has a Club Elise background available.
In the main story, Mirei Park takes a photo with Haruka and the resulting sticker is applied to Park's pen.
In Haruka's side story The Road to Fame, the "PrintCircle with an Idol" series of missions has her take pictures with fans. In the final dance battle mission, she takes photos with Akari Natsukawa and Yui.
In Premium Adventure, Kiryu and Haruka can call the other to take pictures together, or Kiryu can take her to a photo booth while they are exploring together. For Haruka's Trust, once all activities in a city have been done, Haruka will ask to take a photo in that city's local booth.
For the "Local Framer" trophy/achievement, at least one picture with each background must be taken and saved. Pictures with Kiryu and Haruka together do not count toward the achievement.

Print Club in Yakuza Kiwami has a few differences from its Yakuza 5 version. There is now a bar below the photo frame indicating when to press a particular button for a successful photo. The option to write on the photo is no longer present.
Kiryu can choose to take photos alone, or bring Haruka with him.
Goro Majima may photobomb during a session as part of Majima Everywhere.
