" Asked what sparked the company' s decision to bring Tomb Raider to GameCube, Eidos North America' s CEO and president, Bill Gardner, joked, " Lara likes Reggie? No, seriously, our new management team believes that the Nintendo platforms have been neglected and that the platforms provide a great opportunity for Tomb Raider to gain exposure to a new audience." "

As you can tell it' s about Tomb Raider on GCN but it seems like a bit of a change of attitude in 3rd party developers behaviour.

It looks strange to support GCN at thit moment , but it could be a good start before getting to program for Revolution.
