AtariAge produced a wonderful SMB homage called Princess Rescue for the Atari 2600
It has been abruptly removed from their storefront and all official communication on the matter has stopped.

Note that this was a play alike and did not mention Mario or rip sprites directly from the game it paid tribute to.
I think this is a pretty horrible move by the big N if they are guilty of not only threatening AtariAge but forcing them to cease all communication on the subject.
