No the reason is the Wii. No one was buying the $600 console (or even it's $450 gimped version) and now one was buying the older, less fun Xbox 360.

Back at the start of last gen, everyone was buying the new fun Wii.

I assume we're comparing first years of the respective consoles, in which case the Wii was not available during the 360's first year.

A point well made, although I would think Xbox backlash and PS2 popularity would have hurt early 360 sales regardless. You are right though.
