I will also assume you misread Superman's comment but whatever. The Megadrive is some ways a budget version of the Sega System 16 Arcade board where the goal was to have a good experience with playing the arcade games at home.
So yea, it is suitable for these types of games for sure..
(Rumor has it the actual successor to the Master System was abandoned when SEGA found out about Nintendo developing the Super Nintendo, so they realized they had to up their game and the System 16 arcade hardware was already there, it was successful, developers knew how to develop for the 68000 etc..)
I think the main motivation to do a better Amiga port is to prove it could have been so much better if only the devs would have done a better job. A lot of people were frustrated at the lazy port we got, so its a matter of vindication ;-)
Also, the guy making the Megadrive version is also trying to prove they could have got an arcade perfect port back in the day, but how strange is it that they didn't even get a release at all?..
