If it were that small then nobody would even think about re-releasing those old games even in bundles or making remakes/Remaster of such old games. And yet practically every week you hear about a new retro bundle, remake or remaster coming out. It's not the biggest market for sure, but much larger than you seem to believe.
Games have a short shelf life for people who play through one game and never look back at it ever again. But some old games have active communities to this day, some even get updates more than 10 years after their initial release due to their longevity.
Also, this.
