I see a lot of shade being thrown at the Gamecube, but back in the day RE4 releasing on GC was seen as a big deal "get" for Nintendo and the platform.
That the PS2 would significantly outsell the Gamecube to the point where Nintendo would forgo HD competition had yet to be seen.
The decision to release exclusively on Gamecube despite the fanbase being entrenched on PlayStation was a jarring one that rocked the initial sales of the game. This could also be seen when Capcom released RE0 on Gamecube as well as Code Veronica on Dreamcast.
The franchise was never a kingmaker.
