Yeah...Going with what Jermungandr said, the "Creative Endorsement Program" is apparently something very specific to NicoNico Japan.
According to this article from NintendoLife, participating in the "Creative Endorsement Program" means that Nintendo has created a list of 250 games that you can do a Let's Play of on NicoNico video without any legal issues. Nothing at all has been said about fan games, and ROM Hacks are still considered very illegal due to the involvement of emulation.
With that being said, I can't wait to see if Nintendo will expand their policies to include fan games! This would be nothing short of blessing for projects like Mother 4.
