For starters: IP damage. Nintendo's biggest resources are their IP's. If somebody poorly distributes the content of their IP's it can damage the monetary value of said IP as it would act as a subsitute rather than a complement in some (but not all) cases, pushing down the demand curve on a supply/demand graph. Nintendo's role on youtube is to have all let's plays act as complementary or suplementary goods, not subsitute goods.
Nintendo's not in the business to look "cool" they're in the business to sell video games. They do it well enough that they were more profitable than "cool" companies like Sega and Microsoft. It is only when they give power to other (3rd party) companies (like EA) that they start to become unprofitable (which is evidenced by the Wii U.)

So you're essentially saying all other brands of neglectful of their IP's?

There aren't any other companies with IPs as strong, notorious and long lasting at Nintendo's. So that should tell you enough and answer your question.
