GBA did not cannibalise GCN the way 3DS is cannibalizing the Wii U, because their libraries weren't as similar. GCN's main problem was its butchering of Nintendo's franchises instead of taking the next logical step from their 64 iterations.

I haven't been in the best condition in the last few days, so it hasn't dawned on me before today: All you guys who disagree with me share the belief that the Nintendo hardcore console comes down to flawed execution. I mean, just look at your latest reply to me. "...taking the next logical step from their 64 iterations.", what good would that have done? The Nintendo 64 was a failure.

N64 was a modest success, not a failure. And it was handicapped by cartridges, which not only limited support but were a lot more expensive than CDs, and being late to the party.
