I’m developing a game that very closely mimics the gameplay of the ghost minigame from Nintendo Land. I’m not including Nintendo characters, names, etc.
Is there any precedent of Nintendo going after people for something like this?

It still grinds my gears that Warner Bros. patented the Nemesis System they used in their shadow of war/Mordor games. I’d love a whole genre of those kinds of games with different settings and themes.
Even in their case, the phrasing within their patent form is fairly specific to their games. Unless one completely clones the system, I would be surprised if they got legal trouble for it. Better to check with a qualified lawyer of course.
Care to elaborate what makes it so special? I’m intrigued and I never really play licensed games because they are usually trash
