See the following from Download apps on your Apple TV - Apple Support

The App Store isn’t available on Apple TV (3rd generation). To get new apps that you can use on your Apple TV (3rd generation), update your software.

Doing the update your software as described above may install new apps but it does not install the App Store app.

The App Store didn't become available until the fourth generation models.
