There is potentially something odd going on with the color pallet of genesis games (/Shadowrun in particular).
Ill have to look into it a bit more (and look at it (images, switch docked) on a calibrated monitor), but it seems as if the switch would oversaturate colors. Ill talk about it more, once I've looked a little more into it.
When you capture an image using the screenshot key on the device, the image (= what gets fed to the framebuffer) seems to be fine, but the switch displays both an image of the game, as well as the game in oversaturated colors.
Its easy to catch, when you look at the yellow thats used as the main font color in Shadowrun as an example. On two of my monitors the color has a subdued look to it, on the switch its a bright punchy yellow. I'll confirm with a color accurate monitor tomorrow.
(Does anyone know if the Switch uses a wide color gamut profile as the default?)
edit: According to a neogaf post, the switch uses rec 709 (srgb) gamut. If thats the case it should be fine. It still might have been my two other monitors (or the Switch' color temperature/white level of 8500 Kelvin (norm is 6500), or more native contrast on the panel used). Ill look into it.
