This is split from the thread "Camerica Mapper 71 for games other than Fire Hawk":
Here is my two cents with Codemasters' recent releases of Dizzy for NES
1) I thought Wonderland Dizzy was supposed to be the final Dizzy release for the NES...
2) I thought it wierd that the developers of the NES/SMS/GG version of the Dizzy games chose to rename the sequel formatting... The formatting supposedly, at this current time and state, is:
Dizzy 3: Fantasy World (Original) / Mystery World (Rebrand)
Dizzy 4: Magicland (Original) / Wonderland (Rebrand)
Dizzy 6: Prince of the Yolkfolk (Original) / The Adventurer (Rebrand, Reverted back to original title with the IOS and Android releases)
Dizzy 8: Fantastic Adventures of (Original, NES) / Fantastic (Rebrand, Shortened)
A brief mention: the same thing happened with Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade in Europe, as it was rebranded as "Cosmic Spacehead" for some unknown reason, Maybe nameing someone after a fictional planet made of Linoleum was a bad idea?

I've got no clue why the renaming of things, but you might try asking @TheOliverTwins on twitter?
