Typically third party titles on the Nintendo Gamecube sold pretty poorly. Even Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles on the Gamecube only sold a half million units which is pretty meager for a Final Fantasy game. Crystal Chronicles was funded primarily by Nintendo to help get the word out on Gameboy Advance connectivity.
The reason why the Final Fantasy series has been synonymous with the Sony Playstation is that Nintendo decided to stick with the cartridge format for the Nintendo 64. This would come back to bite Nintendo as Squaresoft (now known as Square-Enix) moved development of Final Fantasy 64 (now known as Final Fantasy VII) to the original Playstation. The reason being is that game cartridges typically held around 32 megabytes or less while CDs held 650 megabytes. With Final Fantasy VII spanning over three discs it would have been impossible for the title to fit on a cartridge, especially with the main pull of the game being its cinematic feel.
After Final Fantasy VII sold so extraordinarily well Square decided to stick with the Sony Playstation platform for the franchise because they already had a pretty solid fanbase on the platform. Sony did have a limited exclusivity contract for the franchise making it so the PC version of each Final Fantasy title would have to come out about 10 months after the Playstation version but this still didn't fair all that well for the struggling Nintendo 64 platform.
Today, there is talk that Final Fantasy XIII could show up on both the Playstation 3 and the Xbox 360. Due to the rise in development cost and the relatively poor sales of the Playstation 3 in the United States and the poor sales of the Xbox 360 in Japan. Nothing has been really set in stone though.
As far as Final Fantasy's relationship with Nintendo. There is a downloadable sequel to Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles in the works for the Wii as well as a sequel on the DS as well. A disc based sequel for the Wii is also in development but little details have been revealed on it.
With the Wii's incredibly strong sales worldwide it would not be surprising to see more support from Square-Enix for the platform. Unlike the Gamecube, the Wii has a very large audience and due to its lack of emphasis on graphics it is much cheaper to create a game on the Wii system. Square already has an installment of the Dragon Quest series for the Wii and Dragon Quest IX will be released exclusively on the Nintendo DS.

Square, the company that makes the FF series, had a binding contract to make games exclusively for Sony for most of the Gamecube's life cycle.
There is currently a lot of backstage politics and bickering about where the next FF will go. It's rumoured that FF 13 will be on the xbox 360, but nothing official has come down the pipe.
