WHAT!...WHAT!? Please contemplate what you just wrote.

Nintendo made a ton of money off the Gamecube

But, with regards to the competition, it underperformed, by A LOT, and lost most of the already slim 3rd party support.

That's what I meant by commercial failure, it failed to get a large install base.

What I meant by financial success was, obviously, Nintendo still made money.

Those terms do not mean that. The GC was a failure in marketshare. A commercial failure would be something else.
