Will you end up porting any of that to your port?
Will your port even be a full port of the game or just the basic engine?

By goal is to remake the bare-bones of the engine and make some interactivity with some objects in Toriel's house. Making something from the full game could cause me trouble, since it's paid (the demo, of what I am currently taking out the resources, is free).

Maybe making the screen going just black and making the player exit to homebrew launcher?
How about a digital keyboard on the touch screen??
I'm going to say just use the same keyboard used for the name input. We have the whole touch screen so it should be a non issue.
That would be the most straightforward way to translate that scene to a console-based game, but remember you only have a limited time to type your answer and touchscreen controls aren't the most responsive. Besides, implementing a fully functional touch keyboard for a single fight might be a bit much.
It shouldn't be too much of a big deal - paid games have been ported and emulated without trouble.I think you replied to the wrong person

But Undertale is a very recent game - and the original creator may be even watching our posts...

Of course he wouldn't be able to post it here if he went that route - but I feel he wouldn't have much trouble releasing it on the ISO site that shall not be named, or on /r/3dshacks.
That is, assuming he even wants to work on such a large project.
The version downloaded from Radiation's site is DRM-free, I don't think the Steam release is. But yeah, considering how many people actually have and use homebrew in their 3DS systems, I don't think a free 3DS version of the game would cut into his sales significantly - the game is doing really good so far and it's only bound to sell more copies in the future, a homebrew version won't change this. Maybe, *maybe* if he intended to release it on 3DS in the future, but he already said he's not interested and doesn't even own any current-gen consoles, so why not?
Perhaps you could make it a requirement - you have to place your legally-obtained copy of Undertale in the SD card, so that the game pulls assets from there - kind of like what NXEngine does.
Of course that's easier said than done - I have no idea how UT stores its assets, but it'd be worth looking into I guess.
It's DRM Free if you grab it off of Humble Bundle (which is what the official site uses) like I did.

That's actually a good idea, since the assets should be the right size too...

At least it's DRM free, so our biggest problem is gone.
Here is where the problem starts: the sprites are in a .sprite format, and it's kind of different than normal PNG and JPEG files (on my experience, I always needed to import and export them). The tilesets and the backgrounds are similar. The objects use the GameMaker Studio proprietary coding, so it's basically useless. And there's data.win, that I have no idea on how to extract and use its contents.

How about we check for certain undisclosed files located in the game directory, and if they exist, the game proceeds, whereas if they don't the game exits.
I was just about to suggest that - maybe ask the users to place their legally-obtained data.win in the Undertale folder of their SD card. You'd check the file's MD5 hash to make sure it's actually a legit, unmodified data.win before starting the game.
Otherwise there's nothing stopping the player from grabbing a random file and renaming it data.win, is there?
Yeahh, it doesn't matter how hard we try to do it, since people will pirate anyways, we just need to come up with the right amount of 'protection'.
Bit of an old post but why not just use the .ogg files (I believe that 3ds has a homebrew library for them) that come with the game?

@Xdqwerty, to answer your question, they're a fusion Brit-pop/J-pop/electronic band with a woman vocalist. Flamingo is hands down their best known song but they've got a ton of other really good songs+1 -

For example, one of my other favorite songs from them, with some massive house music influence -+1
