Games will only be on Nvidia GeForce Now after developer opts-in
GeForce NOW is an extension of the PC ecosystem. There is no cost for developers — games just run without difficult porting requirements — helping them reach millions of players who don’t have game-ready PCs.
Going forward, only the games that are opted in will be available on the service, providing confidence in the GeForce NOW game library. Yet some publishers are still figuring out their cloud strategies. Those that haven’t opted in as of May 31 will be removed. The current list of games playable on GeForce NOW, including mega-hits — like Apex Legends, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Destiny 2, Dota 2, Fortnite, Rocket League, Terraria and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege — can be found here, along with the list of games that will no longer be available. With more than 2,000 games already committed to the service, including over 500 instantly playable and more added every Thursday, the GeForce NOW library is shaping up reasonably.

Complicated situation. All corporations involved in this, from Nvidia to publishers, are exceedingly greedy. I kinda side with Nvidia on this, but at the same time, I hate cloud gaming and don't want it to be successful, for very simple reasons.
Gaming was never about the games alone, it was about the hardware, finally getting a card that can play a game that was not running on your PC etc. People these days no longer appreciate these things, I remember sneaking in an electricity power plant as a child because they had IBM PC 80286 clones that could play Prince of Persia. Or finally getting to play Monkey Island 2 on my Amiga, having to swap no less than 11 diskettes.
And now cloud gaming is trivializing all of this huge part of the experience and puts everything on a huge corporation's servers. No net, no game.
This gives tremendous power to publishers that I just don't want them to have. I'd rather have that power return as much as possible to customers.

Only a handful of games are added every thursday. The reason is that it takes time and decision for these greedy publishers to opt-in back to the service. Recently Square Enix is back into the service, but not all of their games are back.

And in here local concurence that do better, with more game (you can even instal game you own on the virtuel PC), and are less expensive.
Stadia is getting bigger and bigger so its not dead yet and probably will never be. Perhaps the only google thing that will not be discontinued, time will tell.
The bad thing about stadia is the lack of games and big prices and not so much new games available, then you have some games not running 4K 60fps as advertised. I believe this is publishers choice as well. Other thing is that stadia is a platform like a console, the game needs to be optimized/ported or made just for stadia. While geforce now and Shadow PC just use the power of a gaming PC where you only need the service to play your own games. 4K and 60fps and HDR will come eventually after RTX 3000 series release most likely as it is very wanted.
