The Excellent Dizzy Collection is the last Dizzy game ever released. As the Oliver Twins left Codemasters in November 1993, the rights to Dizzy were owned by both parties meaning no further Dizzy games would be created after this.

Within this bundle is 3 Dizzy games. The main game included is 'Dizzy The Adventurer'. This is an enhanced version of the original Dizzy game, 'Prince of the Yolkfolk'. The other two games bundled in are spins off from the main adventure series. 'Go! Dizzy Go!' being a Pac-Man style game and 'Panic Dizzy' being a Dizzy themed Puzzle game.

Prior to this release, Codemaster most recent failure 'The Aladdin Deck Enhancer' for the NES (US Only) had another 3 Dizzy games in development for it. The Oliver Twins didn't want these games going to waste and began porting them over to the Sega Game Gear & Sega Master System as standalone titles. Codemasters didnt feel too comfortable about them being released individually and made them squeeze as much as they could onto one cartridge, three games. They were all set to package up
'Dizzy The Adventurer', 'Go! Dizzy Go!' and 'Wonderland Dizzy', onto the cartridge however further problems arised with Codemasters saying they didnt want two Adventure games (Wonderland & Adventurer) on one compilation. Wonderland was replaced with Dizzy Panic.

The game was eventually released in November 1993, but only for the Sega Game Gear.
