Compared to the Wii, the Xbox 360 is a failure
XBox360 is far from a failure. ~18 million consoles compared to Wii's ~21 million is hardly getting "tanked".

Actually the figures have changed, so that by March you are looking at.

19 Million XBOX 360s since November 2005
24 Million Wii's since November 2006

Now pay close attention to the Launch dates. The Wii has outsold the XBOX by almost 21% in just 2/3rds of the time. Don't expect the numbers for the XBOX360 to get any better. The Wii is currently outselling BOTH the Xbox360 AND the PS3 combined.
