That's how I see it anyways.
You're not wrong, there should be a mutual layer of respect between fan artists of any kind. I'm not in a position to ever say people should be okay with it, but I do think it's not correct to say using their IP isn't disrespecting them because while Nintendo might just be a company, the people who work there and have worked on the games are not.
I can't say for certain whether people who've done work for a prominent Mario game enjoy seeing it being paid tribute in such a close way - after all, it's the difference between drawing fan art of a video game and making a fan game based off of that video game, but in a lot of cases I don't think anyone using assets from other fangames is doing it maliciously.
This is not one of those cases as I can now see, I want to thank you for pointing out the connecting factors of the website and the guy himself.
I don't know, I do agree with you, though. There is quite a world of difference between Nintendo and our fellow fangame makers.
EDIT: Crap, you're right! D:
