'''''Super Mario 64 2''''' (alternatively '''''Super Mario 64 II''''' or '''''Super Mario 128''''')<ref name=NMS>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #54, page 4.</ref> was the tentative title for a ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' game in development that served as the direct sequel to ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', intended for release in 1999. It was going to be for the [[Nintendo 64DD]], but was canceled early in production due to lack of progress and the commercial failure of the 64DD add-on.{{ref needed}} Only one demo level was ever made but was never publicly revealed.

"We’re in the middle of preparing Mario 64-2 for release on the 64DD. I’d like to take advantage of the 64DD’s ability to store information. As of now, Luigi’s also a full part of the game, but we haven’t started thinking about 2-player gameplay with Mario and Luigi yet. We’ll tackle that once we’ve got the system ironed out—we’ve figured out the processing power issues, so we could do it if we tried. How many Luigi fans do you suppose there are? (Editing department replies: “Quite a lot.”) If Luigi’s really that popular, maybe I’ll made a green box for Mario 64-2. (laughs)"</ref> and a rideable [[Yoshi]].<ref>Owsen, Dan (January 1998).

'''''Super Mario 64 2''''' was the tentative title for a ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' game in development that served as the direct sequel to ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', intended for release in 1999. It was going to be for the [[Nintendo 64DD]], but was cancelled early in production due to lack of progress and the commercial failure of the 64DD add-on. Only one demo level was ever made but was never publicly revealed. It is possible that some concepts of this game were included in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. It is also possible that ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', or ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' could have elements salvaged from the development of ''Super Mario 64 2'', according to [[Nintendo]] during an E3 event. Had it been released then this would have be the first time a 3D ''Mario'' platformer would have received a direct sequel, predating ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''.


It is speculated by fans that the unreleased Nintendo 64DD port of the original ''Super Mario 64'', titled ''[[List of unreleased media#Super Mario 64: Disk Ban|Super Mario 64: Disk Ban]]'', may be related to the game.<ref>https://gamingafterhours.com/2014/06/24/super-mario-64dd-version-discovered-in-japan/</ref>
[[Luigi]] was also set to appear in this game <ref>[http://ign64.ign.com/objects/001/001960.html Info on Luigi's appearance]</ref>. It can be assumed that he would have been playable, as [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] had planned to make ''Super Mario 64 2'' multiplayer<ref>[http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1326369 Multiplayer information]</ref> &ndash; in fact, the first playable demo level was multiplayer. Miyamoto also had stated (while still in the process of making the game) that he was thinking of releasing the game on an entirely new gaming system.<ref>[http://www.sm128c.com/previews.php?sys=gcn&game=sm128&num=01 Release on a new game system]</ref> It is also unknown what [[List of Power-Ups|Power-Ups]], if any, were going to appear in the game.


Another potential sequel would have been ''[[Super Mario 128]]'', but that game was developed in private and was initially believed to have been the foundation for ''[[pikipedia:Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU1IML3xlp0</ref>
While it is cancelled, some people believe that it is the prototype disk "Super Mario 64 Disk Version."<ref>http://gamingafterhours.com/2014/06/24/super-mario-64dd-version-discovered-in-japan/</ref>
