@Xiovanni it has nothing to do with Nintendo, Nintendo doesn't have a say in this at all, they don’t have anything to do with the IP. These guys are being really childish about their approach to getting this made.
In fact these guys need to talk to MGM and Microsoft, which im guessing isn't really possible.
They wanted to pin the fault on someone, they tried to get Nintendo to throw their weight behind this project to give it legitimacy but Nintendo are not stupid, they know doing that would open a legal can of worms for them.
These kids trying to remake this game have a very very rudimentary understanding of law and ownership rights. They thought with Nintendo's backing, the game would definitely get made, but that's just childishly silly.
What I'm getting from this is that these guys wanted to remake this game and they wanted to get Nintendo on board so it would give them legitimacy to do it, but Nintendo didn't want to get on board because they have nothing to do with the IP and throwing their name behind such a thing would open them up to a legal mess.
So these guys are obviously all salty about all this and are pinning this on Nintendo for not backing them up in their little project.
Even though with or without Nintendo, it wouldn't of happened but that doesn't stop these kids from getting all emotional at the fact that their project wasn't given any support.
This is just a small sample of the bigger long standing issues that Sega of Japan and Sega of America had with each other.
The thing is, Sega was successful when following the American model and ideas, this didn't sit too well with Sega of Japan, who was unfortunately riddled with old xenophobic Japanese individuals.
The early years of Sega's success was down to the US ideas and directions, which probably angered the Japanese which is why they started making a brand new console with very limited input from the US teams (Sega Saturn)... which ironically was a failure in every region other than Japan and was the catalyst to why they ultimately failed.

Childish really.
