Nintendo really only has a history of taking down fan remakes of existing Nintendo games or games that are charging money. They've never to my knowledge had a free fan game or romhack taken down nor do I think they'd have any sort of legal grounds to do so even if they wanted to. And this essentially boils down to a ROM hack. Which is almost certainly completely safe from Nintendo's lawyers since it doesn't contain any Nintendo made assets.
