The Wii's gaming arm!?! I think you need to ask yourself who is lacking in knowledge here.
Nintendo is a games company, it doesn't have any other arms. And obviously they are affected by fluctuations of the stock market. Of course, they are not alone, as the US recession will affect everyone. If you meant that it will have little real world affect on gamers then you would be right, but it will certainly impact Nintendo as a company.
Presumably, Microsoft's gaming division will be the most heavily affected as they are US-centric.
