Mario 128 was just a physics engine. It was used in Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime, and Galaxy, amongst others. A game wasn't ever intended to be released with the title "Mario 128", so I'm pretty sure "Other M" is gonna stick. Which is a pity, since it is a rather off-putting name.
I'll agree with the alpha/beta stage thing, though. I'm sure that's what the cruddy graphics can be attributed to.
Didn't Mario 128 end up becoming Pikmin?
Sorta. They got the element of having 100 objects (Pikmin) on screen from Mario 128.
