An hd remake of mario 64 using unity was given a cease and desist letter. It is possible the project m mod for super smash bros brawl was told to stop (they were notably phasing it from official gaming tournaments). They sent a cease and desist letter to a kickstarter fan film for metroid. They sent many cease and desist letters to youtube gameplay videos. These are just off of the top of my mind.
In most of these cases (like the mario 64 remake or project m), these are just fans operating, without profit, on something they are passionate about. And suddenly their work gets shut down in minutes by Nintendo.
