I think Shadow is referring to Palworld's similarities to Pokemon. There had been a lot of tension over whether or not Nintendo would try to sue the Palworld dev, so it stands to reason that selling something so contentious on Nintendo's own platform might be a bit awkward.
It was only contentious among fans. Nintendo literally said they didn't give a single shit about Palworld.
Nintendo doesn't really restrict things in that way. It would be very strange for them to block a game from publishing on switch for those reasons.
Right? Like they're not exactly the "family friendly" company just because they have simple games with cartoonish art styles.
Wasn't Leisure Suit Larry on GameCube? And there were a few zombie games for the Wii and Wii U.
