Why would they?
Historically, there are two documented instances of the MAME team removing game support at the behest of rights-holders, both of which happened years ago. One of which was on the order of 5-10 years ago, when support for a handful of Cave CV1K games were temporarily removed, and the other, when one or two HanaHo games were removed (or, alternately, never supported in the first place - it happened so long ago that I, a contributor since 2002, am not even clear on it).
If Nintendo or any other company started going around demanding that the MAME team remove support for already-supported games, the community would absolutely be thrown into a furor, and rightly so. There would most probably be some sort of public announcement of it, even.
So, no, "the Nintendo games" have not been removed from MAME over the two years or so since 0.210, nor would they have been, as evidenced by the complete lack of any information to indicate otherwise.
