I would be hard pressed to call 20 plus million consoles sold "a failure".  Perhaps not as commercially successful as others, but far from a failure.

Have seen alot of people refer to it as the "purple lunchbox".  I have a platinum cube and controllers/wavebirds....but if purple was the only color available at launch, I can see that hurting sales initially from an aesthetic standpoint.  Which, makes me wonder...if platinum was the launch color, would people have taken the unit more seriously and perhaps numbers have been radically different?

 

We will never know  =p
