On more consideration I find myself agreeing, I made the mistake of viewing "True Gamer" and "Hardcore Gamer" as the same thing and viewed the video as differentiating between hardcore and casuals, when I don't think that's what it's about at all.
I think people that truly love all of gaming at it's core are more like what you describe. They will play a wide variety of games, they won't choose to miss part of gaming if it only runs at 30fps and they don't need modern graphics to enjoy games.
So I wrongly viewed "True Gamer" as how much people played games, rather than how much they loved the medium as a whole. All Platforms, All Games, All Developers, All Era's. Not just a Nintendo Fan, Not just a PlayStation Fan, Not just a AAA shiny graphics fan. A fan of gaming.
