Is the Windows 8.1 vm a Pro or Enterprise edition? Only these editions can act as remote host, allowing incoming remote desktop connections. The Windows 8.1 core / basic version cannot be connected to with remote desktop.
If you have 8.1 installed "Add features" then enter the Pro key to upgrade to Pro Add Features to Windows 8
I don't know if you can enter 8 Pro key in 8.1 to upgrade. Presumably you tried it and it didn't work :)
If you've got a retail key you should be able to get an 8 ISO from here Upgrading Windows with only a product key - Windows Help
