If Microsoft had released Word and a spreadsheet for it perhaps it would have had a chance. The Amiga did get Word Perfect though which may have been a bigger word processor at the time. It had Pro Write as well which was a very good word processor that even had real time spell checking. The Amiga was such a great machine. But it was probably doomed to be marginal by the time the Amiga 500 came out.
