That would work for extracting Fischer's games.

This doesn't work very well to extract everybody's games -- if there are, for
example, 5000 different players in a DB of 6 million games, you REALLY wouldn't
want to manually perform the above interactive operation for 5000 players.

A batch solution, rather than an interactive solution, is what's needed.
To the best of my knowledge, the Chessbase interface does not support automated
batch operations.  I'd be shocked if any existing interactive chess DB supported
that.
