Details
The Print Club series of photo booths allowed users to take photos, edit them, and print them on sheets of stickers. With Print Club Pokémon B, users were able to choose from a selection of different frames to surround their photos, each depicting scenes and characters from the Pokémon anime.
Software
The USA Print Club model contains 26 unique photo frames and it was also possible to unlock at least two "secret frames" using the arcade cabinet's joystick on the main menu.[1] Evidence has also been found that the Japanese version of the Print Club machine contained a different selection of frames.[2] There was also a sticker submission book that could be sent in to Atlus to win a Pokémon TCG base set booster pack.
Print Club Pokémon B was one of only a few Print Club machines to be exported from Japan to the United States, and was the first Pokémon game to be released in arcades or on non-Nintendo hardware.[3]
