It looks like the project is really careful not to include copyrighted materials in their distribution.
Source code automatically generated from copyrighted binary code is a derivative of copyrighted code, though. It’s like taking a copyrighted book and running it through Google Translate and then clean up the sentences manually. You could be lucky that a publisher might not care about a translation into Icelandic but if you were to auto-translate a French version of a book into English and try to distribute it in the US, you’d probably get in trouble even if you leave out all graphic artwork.
Edit: Unreal Engine, not Unity. My mistake. My point is that unless the project uses absolutely zero intellectual property, such as characters, stories, or franchise names, Nintendo will almost undoubtedly take ruthless interest.

Like the Mario 64 Unreal Engine remake?

Clever. I hope this protects the makers.
