Having read 
https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html#customizing-default-python-versions
 I'm not convinced that this is needed, as the first sentence of the fifth 
paragraph states On 64-bit Windows with both 32-bit and 64-bit implementations 
of the same (major.minor) Python version installed, the 64-bit version will 
always be preferred.

Steve Dower added the comment:

It may be useful if you want an error rather than the 32-bit version, though 
there are other ways to check that if it's critical and it probably is better 
in the script.

Patches welcome :)

[issue20391] windows python launcher should support explicit 64-bit version

[Thomas Heller]

New submission from Thomas Heller:

The windows python launcher supports the '-3.3' resp. '-3.3-32' command line 
switches to ask for 'the best 3.3' version resp. 'the 32-bit 3.3' version, but 
does not support a '-3.3-64' switch to explicitely request the 64-bit version 
of Python.

I suggest that this support should be added.
