Depends on the game really. Consoles basically sucked for adventure, RPG, simulation and strategy games. But they were really good for arcade games and related like platform or shoot'em ups.
I had an Amiga 500 at one point, and it was kind of an in-between those two worlds, but sadly many of the arcade ports were lame because they didn't put much work in them (that Castlevania port being one of the worst), but when they actually put in some effort it paid off. Pic is good example, it was coded by Factor 5 (same guys who made Turrican).
Also all those games that were mouse-based (like Lemmings) would basically suck on console with gamepad. And ditto with games that needed full keyboard (typically stuff like flight simulator, or just any game where you type stuff).

B.C. Kid is Amiga version of that famous PCE game (Bonk). It's by Hudson Soft themselves, and allegedly this is as good or maybe even better than the PCE version.
