Kandur,

You need to consider that games written for cartridges or cassette may not be playable from a 
floppy. It is quite possible that the game code would need to be rewritten to use a disk.

What you really should do is see if a game in question was released on disk. If so, then you just 
need one of the available utilities which run on a PC and can be used to create disks or can send 
files to a disk on a Coco.

If you indicate a specific game, then you will get a better answer to your question.
