The Gamecube actually cost around $80 in 2005, one year before the Wii released. So this actually makes sense.

The cube price was only for clearance, it's not the same situation.

The price wasn't for clearance. I could find people buying Gamecubes for $100 right before the Wii came out. Also how is it a clearance one year before a console ships?

Here's proof that the price was $100 and surprisingly that was in 2003.
