I doubt that is the case, as there are other games with comparable content that are published on Nintendo's store.
This is basically just a non-answer that doesn't say much of anything at all. It could just as easily be one of the ratings organizations to blame, based on that statement, which seems likelier for the reasons others have mentioned.
Yeah, Nintendo are fine with 18-rated games. All evidence points to this being the result of having to comply with the rules of a ratings agency, most likely CERO. But if this isn't Nintendo's fault it means people can't complain about Nintendo.
