I tried it now, too, but I must say that (at least for my D610) I had expected a bit more.
I let Nikon's software work on more than 500 files and got 60 differing profiles. Most of them looked more or less the same, three were not usable in Darktable, and one comes out completely green—not just a little greenish, but almost looking like a b/w image looked at through a green filter. I wonder which image this profile was for. :-) I'll keep one of the profiles as a starting point if I have images with difficult colors, but in general, for me and my camera, using one of the Nikon-like, Nikon-like alternative, or neutral base curves seems to be a better starting point. For the images I looked at (mostly indoor people photography), the profiles had much too few saturation and contrast (and decreasing the linear value to something above 0 alone didn't yield acceptable results, too), so using them would mean I'd have to fiddle with those settings for every image. I'm much quicker with the base curves, choosing one of the three that fits the image, then some exposure correction, and that's it for the color settings of most images (at least for those that don't need to be perfect). But I guess it's different for different camera models, and probably for different lighting situations, too.
