Not a great quarter for X360, still much better than the 2005-2008 rates though. PS3 did 1.03m in Q1 2011, and 4.51m in all of 2011 even with a price cut. Wii did 1.06m in Q1 2011 and did 4.55m in all of 2011 even with a price cut.
This generation Q1 is typically 1/5 to 2/9 of total hardware sales per year, with a couple exceptions for systems with irregular supply like Wii in 2007 / 2008
