"...If you are in doubt, Nintendo recommends that you only purchase Nintendo 3DS software in the region where purchased your Nintendo 3DS system”
That has to mean not all games will only work in their region. Add the "possibility" part and it clearly sounds like there are slightly different hardware/firmwares and games can either be compatible or not to each, doesn't sound like universal region lock at all.
