I know there's a tablet section, but some of the Windows 8 tablets are full PCs with Core i3/i5 processors and what have you so it fits more into the "PC gaming" category.
Here's someone running various console games via different emulators on an Acer Iconia W700 Windows 8 tablet: -
Pretty cool! Shame about the controls though.
What I'd love is a hybrid Windows 8 tablet/laptop where you could purchase an optional "frame" that the tablet part snaps into, so it gives you some proper controls. There's some great touch screen games, but trying to play games that weren't designed for a touch screen with those on-screen controls sucks. With proper controls you'd have a pretty decent gaming experience with some of the more beefy tablets.
