Honestly, a bit surprised by this. It wasn't even on Steam. Hopefully switching to an open source SDK will get this back up.

"Hey, don't use code for our dead game console we stopped manufacturing 22 years ago and don't support anymore!"

Who gives a fuck, Nintendo?

Wasn’t it taken down at Valve’s request, not Nintendo’s demand?

Yes, but mainly because Valve doesn't want to deal with Nintendo's lawyers since it used their libraries.

I really wish they would and set a precedent for Nintendo's anti-consumer tactics.
