Lol. I too will play on my steamdeck... even though i actually do own the switch remake which means I'm not technically pirating it
Piracy isn't relevant here. This is a fan-created work of art, and free for anyone who wants to play it. Nothing was "stolen", and Nintendo is, as always, being a bunch of corpo fucktards.
Something was stolen - they were giving out copies of Link's Awakening, not just the enhancements they made but the game and art content of the original game, which is Nintendo's IP so it is piracy (not to dispute the rest of what you're saying necessarily though). Projects normally get around this by releasing the fan enhancements as a patch that can be applied to a ROM, shifting the piracy from the project to the end user.
Yeah dude, totally pirate that free fan game. You go gurl
