Actually, the 360 sold about 6.7-6.8 (twice or more over what the Wii U will likely do) million in its first full calendar year and sold close to 3 million in its second holiday after both the record breaking Wii and the PS3 had released.
The PS3 sold almost 8 million first full year with a staggered launch and roughly 3.5 million in its second holiday season, or roughly 200-500k more than the Wii U's likely numbers for the whole CY 2013.
It's pretty damn bad, I think a lot of people don't realize just how bad. And nothing in your post it remotely close to being true.

Considering this is a thread about japan sales im pretty sure thats what hes talking about, ur using worldwide sales

Well, that's even worse if that's the case. Using the 360 in Japan as a metric to measure success is... strange.
Besides; the PS3 sold about 1.3 million in Japan in the first full calendar year even though it had competition, from the Wii no less, the Wii U is competing with 7-8 year old consoles and only recently started beating them. There's really no way to spin this into a great achievement.
