Yeah i think it just does not allow non japanese versions of games or non japanese accounts. So you could buy one but all your games would need to be the japanese version and you can only connect to the japanese nintendo online.
Non-JP version games "might" work, but will force to shown in Japanese (if available)
Japan-only version: Only support Japanese language, JP Nintendo account, and probably Japan payment methods for shopping.
Multilanguage support version: Doesn't have those limits, but it's more expensive.
They removed the region-free aspect from switch 1?
