A day 1 patch for Youkai Watch 2 is apparently available for players who already have a copy of the game in Japan. Along with the purchase of the game, a QR code is included with the box that takes 3DS systems straight to the eShop to download. Currently it’s unknown what the day 1 patch adds, it could possibly be related to some of the announcements of last week’s Nintendo Direct. We’ll update the post as new information surfaces
