Actually I doubt 360 version sold more HW. As Source indicated in his analysis it's more likely the uplift from DMC4 was roughly identical to PS3 while 360 also saw some supply constraints ease and got an additional jump from that so overall had a higher lift.
As for Arcade, if more and more people get caught like they did with Burnout for online then I think MS might well regret that already failed attempt to compete with the Wii as the negative press will outweigh any slim advantage the Arcade delivered (although to be honest I don't think the Arcade has delivered any advantage at all and it was a pretty feeble parry vs the Wii which was doomed to failure).
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
