How does this contradict what they said though? Just because some niche community knows these games, it doesn't make them platform-selling games. Valve had HL2 with episodes, Portal, TF2, CS, and Dota 2.

Some "niche community" with a game that's in the top100 most active games on Steam alone, 5 years after release

Correct.
