Shit, I just realized I missed a few things
So that's probably what affected my opinion, apart from a few Nintendo exlcusives there wasn't much of interest to me, the lack of keyboard and mouse support in games, and large enough storage media limited its gameplay capabilities. Thus there were thousands more games released for the Amiga 500, despite the Snes being such a great success for Nintendo globally.
It had an official mouse and had tons of games that supported it, like Civilization.
And how the hell did carts "limit gameplay capabilities"? Are you a fan of FMV titles?
Nice theory, but the Amiga 500 gaming heydays were between 1987 and 1990 almost exclusively in Europe (Most games were higher res PAL, which was not well supported by NTSC TVs at the time, thus requiring a monitor), as the Snes was released in Europe in 1992 your theory seems a bit off.
And how many games rendered at 512? Oh wait, you mean most were considerably lower res, even under 480.... this reminds me of Halo 3.
