Well, it depends on what you mean "Screwed"
The Gamecube had 13 weeks below 10,000 units in its first year, followed by 22 weeks below 10,000 units in its second year and 29 weeks below 10,000 units in its third year (with a large number of those being below 5,000 units). The system was a living system with games being released regularly yet its sales were pretty low. The Gamecube was "Screwed" in the sense that Japan had (obviously) rejected the system in favor of the PS2.
