'''''Super Mario 64 2''''' is a canceled ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' game that was going to be the sequel to ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' in late [[1999]]. It was going to be for the unpopular [[Nintendo 64DD]], but was canceled early in production due to lack of progress and failure of the 64DD. Only one demo level was ever made. It is possible that some concepts of this game are included in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. It is also possible that ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' or ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' could have elements from ''Super Mario 64 2'', as [[Nintendo]] said in a past E<sup>3</sup>. If Nintendo would have had more progress on the game, they may have released it on a disk.


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>{{cite|author=Byungsuk|date=June 24, 2014|url=gamingafterhours.com/2014/06/24/super-mario-64dd-version-discovered-in-japan|title=Super Mario 64DD Version Discovered in Japan|publisher=Gaming After Hours|accessdate=December 27, 2024|language=en}}</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>, but it was unknown what type of role he would have played; however, 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 [[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 ''{{iw|pikipedia|Pikmin (game)|Pikmin}}''.<ref>{{cite|date=October 10, 2020|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU1IML3xlp0|title=Super Mario 128 Ft.
