Not sure I agree with your statement.

Amazon has a streaming app on just about every single device you can connect to your TV to include the TV itself. Why would I spend $99 for something that three other devices I already own can do the same thing? Unless Amazon plans on killing support for the consoles, HDTVs, stand-alone streaming boxes etc. I can't see myself purchasing one of these.

What exactly will make this stand out in the crowd of already connected devices?

It's $99 and has a bunch of $1 games which can be shared with tablets and phones ... a lot of parents may lean towards getting their kids this over a dedicated $300+ console with $60 games. 

Not only $1 games, each day one paid app (premium versions without in-app-ads) is free. Today Sonic CD for example ($6.99 for Ouya) or The Bard's Tale last week... and these games will probably get support for the FireTV-controller soon.
