Well, the GameCube launched 18 months later in Japan than the PS2, 13 month later in America and 18 months later in Europe. Until then, the PS2 had a big advantage both in hardware base as in the library of games.
The propriatary mini-DVD format also wasn't that developer friendly with only 1/3 capacity of a single-layered DVD or 1/6 capacity of a dual-layered DVD.
