It's back. I also wonder how they are able to do that. The graphics, sounds and music is all from the SNES Zelda title. How can this survive if you aren't even allowed by Nintendo to upload movies to YouTube?


The website owner and lead of the project is not based in the US. If he's received any notice from Nintendo, he's probably just ignored it with no consequence.


Youtube is different because there's a monetization angle with the ads. The artwork in Solarus is certainly not legal to distribute in most countries, but it's so low-profile that no one has bothered to go after them.
