That works too, but it doesn't roll off the tongue as well. Plus, let's be honest, the problem most of us have isn't (just) that they play all the mainstream games and therefore consider themselves "elite," it's that they have this elitist mentality that only their tastes mean anything.

I agree snobcore sounds better, but I think hardly core sounds much more insulting. Snobcore reaffirms the offended’s "elite" status, even if in a negative way. Hardly core challenges that elite status, and can even be interrupted as an attack on their gaming prowess.
