Nintendo Removing Video Game Music?

Technically, they already are. They claim the rights to your videos and put ads on it. They just aren't following the traditional YouTube model of deleting the video along with all similar ones and placing a strike on your channel. I personally believe that this is a better way of handling it. Also, I can't think of a single time where YouTube has made progress in some way like this, then 'regressed' into a worse form of the past. I think there's little concern of Nintendo taking legal action against you.

Can that device notice the song if it's under 15 seconds?

I'm not 100% sure, but I know that GilvaSunner (the guy who uploads tons of video game music on his channel, so he knows about this stuff) said that you should avoid using continuous audio clips of a song that lasts longer than 30 seconds, so I'd assume you'd be fine with 15. Then again, why would you need that time? What's it for? If it's for an outro or something, just find a remix and ask the artist if you can use it. That makes more sense, and there's less risk of copyright trouble.
