The A500 has plenty of hardware features that benefit 2D gaming, so simply porting an ST game to the Amiga was like bunging a Master System game on the Mega Drive.
What some talented devs managed to do with the Amiga really is stunning. The Amiga's broad colour palette, impressive soundchip(clever coding could increase the amount of sound channels) and hardware scrolling made it a great machine for 2D action games. It's just a sad fact that only a few devs managed to take full advantage of the hardware.
