No, the Gamecube's problem was that Nintendo tried too hard to appease the "cool mature hardcore" demographic that b!tchsl@pped the hell out of them for a generation despite the fruit they bear: Eternal Darkness, Resident Evil Zero, 4, and 1 Remake, Twin Snakes, etc.

Only when the big N began broadening outside the "hardcore" bubble with the Wii (i.e. kids, mom, dad, grandpa, grandma etc.), did they regain first place. Surprising how they were so successful despite the "Revolution" still had the same "faults" as the GC:
-No DVD player
-"Different" control scheme.
-Similar level of third party goodness.
-"Not-so-friendly" multiplayer setup a la friend code.

...that's my two cents.
