s390 (IBM mainframe) hardware is presently 64 bit only; there 
was formerly a 31 (!! yes) bit hardware variant as well, but 
such hardware is long out of support and no longer relevant

I am aware of no 128 bit variant externally released by IBM

Power (and ARM, and before that MIPS and Alpha) can be either 
big or litle endian, although one does not find both in wide 
circulation
