It looks like Valve doesn't want to get involved in a potential dispute between the creator of Portal 64 and Nintendo.
Honestly, a bit surprised by this. It wasn't even on Steam. Hopefully switching to an open source SDK will get this back up.

It's a shame, but their request doesn't seem unreasonable. No one likes dealing with Nintendo's lawyers. I hope switching SDKs works out!
