How to unlock the Memo Master achievement in Yakuza 4 Remastered - Definitive Guide

Memos are things you can find in the game that’ll tell you more about game mechanics whether it be about 1 of the 4 characters fighting styles or something about the city. You’ll find a majority of these during your regular playthrough simply by doing the action or by talking to people around the city that have a blue arrow over their heads. After you've gotten your last memo check the memo list cause the achievement may not unlock automatically when you get your last memo. This list comes from CyricZ from gamefaq which has made amazing guides for all the Yakuza games. Here’s a link to their guide of this achievement https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps4/239456-yakuza-4-remastered...

I did this twice and I still can’t get the achievement. This is the last achievement I need to do and it won’t pop. What am I doing wrong?

Anyone having trouble in the future, mine didnt pop until I had opened every memo in the memo section. If your achievement doesnt pop, try opening some of the memos.

I had already read some of the memos in the pause menu, popped immediately after checking one after getting the last of the lot, though it might have just been a late pop.

To get the coliseum one you just need to talk to sign up for the coliseum. That was the one I missed.

Might just be unfortunately bugged like a few other achievements in this game. I remember some people complaining about the same thing happening to them on the pachinko and the hostess dress achievements.

If you have collected all the Memos, but there is no trophy, go to the Memos section after a pause - it will drop out
