I would submit that it's pretty likely we'll see more than 12 titles released for Gamecube between now and May 26th, 2006. Just counting the ones that have a specific date, a quarterly date, or 'early 2006', I see 17 titles listed. There are also 20+ games listed as TBA. There's a pretty good chance that at least some of those will make it in the next 6 months as well.
And as far as PS1 being viable.. Where have you been looking around at games? Sure we saw the occassional 3rd-rate title ooze out for it, but it was by and large relegated to oblivion pretty damn quickly. Again I'll make a prediction, this time next year, you won't even SEE Xbox consoles and hardware in major retailers (Wal-Mart, etc), and the game selection will be negligible. With the looming war with PS3, I hardly think Microsoft will dedicate any resources to the old unit. Look at how the PS1 was treated after PS2 came out. Did PS1 get the new Tekken, the new Gran Turismo, the new Final Fantasy, hell even a GTA game? Nope, it was utterly abandoned to it's bargain-bin funeral. The only successful game system overlap in recorded history is probably the Gameboy series, Nintendo sure juggles the hell out of things, when it came to GB to GBC, then GBC to GBA, then GBA to DS, there was a remarkable overlap to be witnessed.
Anyhow, this is all my opinions based upon what evidence there exists so far, and applying personal observation and experience.
We'll see the truth over the oncoming year.
