How does that even work. Weren't they frozen as the bombs were falling, didn't wake up for 200 years and would have missed the events of the other games.

The intro to Fallout 1 shows an in-universe news program depicting events from the US annexation of Canada, which happened between 2072 and 2077. The dev is saying the male protagonist from Fallout 4 is one of the soldiers in the footage executing a Canadian insurgent.

So at some point the male protag was in the US army sometime around 2072. The bombs fall in 2077, he's frozen, then he's awoken in 2287.
