Imo, on Gamecube they made 2 of their best games ever: Smash Bros Melee and Metroid Prime. But they went wrong with Mario, their most important IP.
That said, the gamecube had a lot of other problems as well, starting from probably the worst marketing ever made for a console. It has arrived too late, it was targeting hardcore gamers but it looked like a toy, a lot of N64 owners were alienated due to the lack of Rare and FPS games.etc.
