Unfortunately one of the people absent from the N64HQ Reunion Tour was Yutaka Ohbuchi. His news from Japan was always the best on the N64HQ. He has currently resided at Videogames.com - Gamespot. He has just posted a little story on Gamespot about the rumor of Mario 64 2 to appear on the Dolphin.

As GameSpot News recently reported, Nintendo has revised its release schedule and several former 64DD titles are now being listed as cartridges. Games previously scheduled for the future disk drive - Kirby 64, Super Mario RPG 2, Fire Emblem 64 and Mother 3 - are now on the list as cartridges for later this year and next.

One 64DD title, however, has mysteriously vanished - Super Mario 64 II. Nintendo has given no explanation for its removal either. Gamers in Japan speculate that the game is now being reworked for Nintendo's next generation system - the Dolphin.
