Few people have realised this, they wonder what it might be.

Think about the number, it's 128, half of 128 is 64 yes?

THat makes Mario 128:

Mario 64 * 2

Just like Final Fantasy X 2, except it's been simplified, see what I'm getting at?

And if you don't, Mario 128 is sequel to Mario 64.

It's hapened too many times, but it's WAY too obvious.

The Gamecube has the same bit architecture as the rival systems...

That is the only specification I know.

Nintendo called Mario 128, Mario 128 because of the bit in the console. The Nintendo 64 was a 64 bit games console hence the name Mario 64. The Gamecube as with the PS2 and X-box is 128 bit and so they code-named it Mario 128 despite it being a codename from the media and not Nintendo themselves.
