It's cool but I don't like it for a number of reasons, mostly legal.
- Infringing on other people's established works (both of which are still prominent in the industry)
- Reuse of Nintendo's IP without permission
- Reuse of Nintendo's code without permission
- Blatant encouraging of piracy via emulation and ROMs
If Nintendo weren't still making money off the game and the brand, if they hadn't renewed the licenses and the game was freeware I would be fine with this.
The game has been edited to have Zelda saving Link for a change. Therefore it is a parody which is protected under fair use law.
