py2exe 64 bit python 2.7 installation

Question

Is there a pip install for py2exe 64 bit that is for the 64 bit python 2.7? The 32 bit py2exe doesn't work for me, but I keep getting exceptions when I try to install the 64 bit version. I downloaded the 64 bit py2exe for python 2.7 from this site: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#py2exe but can't install it

The error I am getting using python -m pip install py2exe:

Runtime Error: This package requires Python 3.3 or later
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1

Note: The following works for the 32 bit but I need the 64 bit

pip install http://sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe/files/latest/download?source=files 

I am running 64 bit python 2.7 and am trying to install 64 bit py2exe

Any easy pip install for it?
