Ship of Harkinian, OoT port, has been up for a long while already. and the Mario and OoT decomp have been up on GitHub for years. Because non of them are distributing Nintendo’s copyrighted or trademarked work. The user has to provide the rom themselves. Nintendo has no legal ground to sue this project since they aren’t breaking any law, unlike many of the fan projects who are using Nintendo’s IP unauthorized.
