As for why there are no bunches of Amiga developers making new arcade ports today... Well, my guess is that the majority of Amiga developers still active either prefer creating demos or moved on to NG Amiga targets. The few that remain quickly (or not so quickly) learn my second point: creating a good Amiga game that performs well and looks & sounds good is not actually that easy (which is not because the hardware is incapable, but because using it well is hard).
I would say more the first one, NG platforms are not exactly full of software as far as i know :/

A demo is indeed an easier task than a game, but that is well known.

For the limited marked i like to suggest my favorite pet peeve, a.k.a. encapsulation in an emulating instance to sell in online storefronts like steam; i know there are licensing problems though...
