For sure, their hatred for fan games pisses me off. Nintendo is far from perfect. I was so sad when AM2R got shut down, it was a nearly perfect project. They've also gone after certain popular Pokemon ROM hacks like Flora Skies. Most of it has been undeniably shitty.
However I will defend some of their copyright bs. I think it's reasonable to ban posting footage of certain things in the game as long as it's made clear. Nintendo games are all about discovery, the shock awe. They were bitches about Super Mario Odyssey ending footage when the game first released and I'm glad they did.
They don't hate them at all! They just steal their ideas
