One thing I noticed about most Nintendo fangame remakes that taken down is that most are competing with games that Nintendo is either:
  • A) Still selling in one shape or form (be it Virtual Console or even official remakes)
  • B) Currently developing something which a fan is unknowingly competing with.
So I was wondering: If Nintendo takes down fangame remakes that compete with something they're already selling, then what about remakes that are of games you can't get from them legitimately? (mostly because they aren't selling them in any shape or form)

Examples of such remakes would be like:
  • Hotel Mario
  • Mario is Missing
  • Mario's Time Machine
  • Mario's Game Gallery/Mario's Fundamentals
  • Mario Teaches Typing 1/2 etc
Would Nintendo go as far as taking down those? Because if yes, then that would mean they'd acknowledge projects which they are not really fond of/would like the public to remember.

also huh, first forum thread of 2022
Other socials:
Sonic Retro
NCFC
YouTube

List of projects I eventually plan to finish after the indefinite hiatus is over, assuming I don't abruptly cancel them:
[+]Spoiler
Mario's Rather Unusual Trilogy (Mario's slightly unusual Boss Rush (Completed), Mario vs. Some Unusual Foes (In development), Mario's VERY Unusual Final Frontier (In development))
Sonic's Foray into Random/Unusual Zones (spin-off of Unusual Trilogy, in development)
Angry Birds Slingshot Frenzy (In development)
Super Mario Flashback: Really Good Edition (In development)
Super Hilda DX (In only conceptual phase)

Yes, I am aware that I have about 6 or so fangame projects currently in development at the same time. And yes, I am also aware that all of this is very ambitious.
+ List of projects I'm helping out with in some small capacity during my hiatus:
[+]Spoiler
Super Mario Bros Dimensions 2 (as a spriter, only for Mario's sprites)
MFGG Community Fangame Project 3 (as a spriter)
WordGirl ReWired (as a artist)
