Not really ...
In North America The Gamecube had a strong launch month (November) and good holiday sales (December) and then sales fell off in January and didn't really recover until the holiday season. Japan and Europe the Gamecube never sold unusually well.
Consider that by the 6 month point in Japan the Wii will have sold more hardware than the Gamecube did in 2 years and the Wii will likely sell more hardware in a year than the Gamecube did in its entire life.
