Well
"In the July 2006 issue of GamesMaster, a short interview with Miyamoto at E3 2006 reveals that Super Mario Galaxy is not necessarily Super Mario 128.
GAMESMASTER:What inspired Super Mario Galaxy and what does it mean for Mario 128?
MIYAMOTO:Well, Mario 128 was a collection of different experiments. Super Mario Galaxy takes a lot of the experiments from Mario 128 and implements them in the game. Because of that it's partly 128 but there are also elements that existed in Mario 128. I don't know when we'll be able to bring those out.
In issue three of the Swedish gaming-magazine Level, Miyamoto answers a question about Mario 128:
LEVEL:During the years it has been rumored about a Super Mario-game that then just disappeared. A sequel to Super Mario 64 was supposedly under development, like a three-dimensional game for the Super NES, and during the whole Gamecube-era Super Mario 128 have been mentioned. What have happened to these games? Have they been only rumors? Is Super Mario Galaxy actually Super Mario 128?
MIYAMOTO: Super Mario 128 is just one of the many experiments we have had. Suddenly everyone started to talk about it."
