We comment on the relationships between several supersymmetric lattice models; the ``orbifold lattice theory'' by Cohen-Kaplan-Katz-Unsal (CKKU), lattice regularization of the topological field theory by Sugino and the ``geometrical approach'' by Catterall. We point out that these three models have close relationships; the N =(2,2) model by Catterall [Catterall] and the two-dimensional N = (2,2) lattice theory being similar to Sugino's construction [Sugino] can be derived by appropriate truncation of fields in the two-dimensional N = (4,4) orbifold lattice theory by CKKU [Cohen et al]. Catterall's N = (2,2) description possesses extra degrees of freedom compared to the target N = (2,2) theory. If we remove those extra degrees of freedom in a way keeping supersymmetry on the lattice, Catterall's description reduces to a model of the Sugino type.
