GameCube had very strong multiplat support from Western devs and strong exclusive support from Japanese devs so that kinda rules out the whole file size argument.


Not really. Western developer supported the console, but there were lots of japanese games that were released by third party exclusively on PS2 includings: Silent Hill, Onimusha, Devil May Cry, Grand Theft Auto (Not Japanese, I know), Dino Crisis, Fatal frame, Pro Evolution Soccer, Tenchu, Final Fantasy and Tales Of, Driver (not Japanese either), Castlevania. I don't know about you, but I felt a little envy of my friends who owned a PS2 because those games. 

How many of those games missed GameCube specifically because of file size? Most could fit using 2 discs (these same devs put games on 4 discs for PS1 just a few short years earlier), most of those games would probably have been exclusive regardless of Nintendo using mini or full size DVD.
