I remember reading that Nintendo designed the SNES with a hump to help prevent people from setting food and drinks on it since the NES made a great table for things to spill on. Guess they gave up when they designed the Gamecube!
First design decision was probably to improve the design, second one was when they realized that the bad design made more money when people needed to replace consoles.

That's why they vent out the sides, like a open air convection oven
