It's also 12 years more advance dthan Gamecube so they could have figured a way to keep it cooler and quiet. Sony typically aims for aesthetics first in their hardware. Gamecube is my least favorite Nintendo system but it's easily one if not the best engineered console ever.

But why?

Is there anything that really stands out as forwards thinking? smart design, smart layout, smart usage of space?

In that sense I look at the PS4 slim and I think they did alot with very little space, and had to resort to smart design to get it all to fit in that small a box.

The same isnt true for the gamecube.

Well yeah, it managed to pack a very powerful, quiet, and easy-to-develop-for system into a small case at a cheap price. Its components were all well balanced without any real bottlenecks. Hell, it worked so well they reused its architecture for the Wii and even the Wii U.
