Now that's interesting.

There is getting to be way too many gaming offerings for the living room these days!! 140 bucks initial investment, I wonder what sort of free game offerings they might have..

I'm sure they'll have quite a few incentives. They still give away a lot of stuff in the Amazon Appstore every day. They said most games will be between $1-$2. And that 1,000 coins comes out to be about $10, so you can at least get your feet wet right away without having to pay much on top of the cost of the device and controller themselves.

Over 130 games have already been announced and Amazon has a store page for all the FireTV compatible games (nested under their Android category):

The game everyone is talking about is Sev Zero:

Amazon purchased this studio who has made some REALLY big games for Microsoft in the past. I'm hoping this game is awesome.
