The Power Grip is an item that appears in the game Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. It can only be obtained by making a different kind of espresso at Starbeans Café for the fifth time. Professor E. Gadd will then appear and gives the Power Grip to Mario and Luigi.

Appearance[]

The Power Grip appears to resemble Mario and Luigi's gloves except it is gray in color.

Usage[]

With the Power Grip equipped, Mario or Luigi's hammer will not lose its head when defending. This is very useful against enemies or bosses that take awhile to attack and to hold up the hammer longer for safety.

The Power Grip does not return in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, which replaces it with the Secret Specs because Mario and Luigi can hold out their hammer for as long as they desire without its head falling off.

Trivia[]

  • In pre-release versions, Mario and Luigi originally would have received an Energy Tank from Samus Aran, but when this cameo was removed, the Energy Tank was replaced with the Power Grip.
