The Xbox 360 isn't doing very hot. It is about as successful as the original Xbox.


Not. Even. Close.

you. are. wrong.

The chart there is flawed. Look at the original Xbox results. Missing anything?

So the 360 isn't selling better than the original Xbox. Does that mean it is as much of a failure? No, of course not -- there are too many variables to say that. The price of the original box was dropped after 6 months, for example, whereas Microsoft's strategy of rebates and bundles during holiday periods is a completely different approach. They've done as well at $400 as the original xbox did at $200.
