You list one of the most popular PC franchises which was devoloped by MS as an example for the rest of all tge games?

I have various games from windows XP era which are unplayable like Enemy Zero, Shadow of Memories, Breath of Fire 4, Oni, MGS2. 

Just downloaded Breath of Fire 4 and got it to run on Windows 10 immediately.  ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'm hard pressed to think of any game released for Windows 95 or after that I can't get to run on Windows 10 natively. Star Trek Armada (2000), Rollercoaster Tycoon (1999), Zoo Tycoon (2001), Rayman Gold (1997), Civilization 2 (1996). I'm sure there ARE games that can't be run on Windows 10 that were released late 90's or after but the vast majority (literally 99%) work.

Even obscure Japanese Visual Novels from the 90's run.

While it's true that it is possible to make the games run, sometimes titles will have issues with hardware being far beyond what the title would expect to find inside a system, heck even my version of Halo 1 is convinced that I have 0MB of system memory when it goes to start up because of this, also there are titles which rely on older direct X video codec packages which have been dropped, say Dark Omen from EA, the title works and stages are fine, but any of the cutscenes are just a mess even by Windows 7, I fear what the title might look like in W10.

But yeah... with tinkering and patches/modding it can be possible to get games to "run" but with older titles you will encounter a few hiccups which can really take from the original experience, I'm sure if the PS4 could run PS2/3 titles but they were missing all cutscenes/music/sounds from the games... people would question the value of the ability to play those games, although it sure would make games like Metal Gear solid a whole lot shorter to finish, Silver lining on every cloud!
