They had to try.
Not sure why the OP is referencing the 360 as a comparison. At this point Xb one is looking like it will finish well behind Xb og (530K). Basically knock off the 20K Xb one sold at launch week and we're likely to see that level of sales annually for the life of the console (35K/ year). If Xb one sells in Japan for 10 years it will be lucky to crack 400K. More likely it will end short of 200K.
The 360 looks like a phenomenal success by comparison, and the Xb og looks good.
