I was at the announcement and the Skype guy was very clear that they aren’t after “heavy” games like WoW. This program is for light casual games like backgammon or checkers. Very different target market. (Partly this is a technical matter, since the games have to be downloaded, so they can’t be large.)

An interesting comparison is how RealNetworks launched RealArcade, which seems tangential, but continues to be a money maker for them.

You have a network of people, you are just adding another service.
