What do you think the apocalypse is? Ammunition and cans of beans are going to be valuable. Video games, not so much
It depends on the apocalypse.
If it's a mostly everyone dies quick apocalypse due to sickness or a "rapture" type event then "ammunition and beans" are not gonna be as high a commodity.
Hell even in a "I am legend" type apocalypse where beans and ammo are a high commodity so would entertainment be. (and I'd rather play video games than watch movies.)
Collapse is a process. There will probably be an extended period where we still have electricity, but lots of social unrest, food scarcity, etc.
He means post apocalypse is after the collapse when society starts to rebuild
