Here are all the guides, tips, and strategies to enjoy playing Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga with cheats and unlockables.
Tips & Tricks
Easy Items and XP
Acquire the Spike Badge and equip it. Then, jump on the enemies in the adventure field for easy items, XP, and more. If your level is high enough, they die instantly for fast coins. If you equip the GameBoy Horror SP, you can receive higher quality / rare items.
Infinite Coins (1)
- Make Mario go in front of Luigi.
- Choose the hammer for Luigi.
- After you hit Mario with the hammer, for Luigi, choose the high jump.
- Use the high jump, but before Luigi lands on Mario’s head make Mario jump.
- This makes a coin pop out from Luigi.
- You can do this as long as you want but doing this will decrease the health of Luigi, so keep some mushrooms handy.
Infinite Coins (2)
Get to Hoohoo Mountain, then reach a fountain after passing through the first cave. Use it to fill Mario and spray water at the fan contraption that is off the small bridge below (have Luigi jump on Mario to spray). It will give you a coin when you spray it. If you repeat, the machine will begin to give mushrooms as well as coins. It will give you up to 11 mushrooms before it starts to only dispense coins (the coins are unlimited, so keep spraying).
Special Beverage Prizes
Every time you make a new beverage in Starbeans Cafe, Professer E. Gadd (last seen in Luigi’s Mansion for GC) comes and samples the drink. Afterwards he gives you a special item.
- Drink 1: Greed Wallet (doubles the coins you get in battles)
- Drink 2: Bonus Ring (doubles EXP if taken no damage)
- Drink 3: Excite Spring (floating defensive jump)
- Drink 4: Great Force (doubles the damage you give and receive)
- Drink 5: Power Grip (don’t lose hammer in defense)
- Drink 6: Cobalt Necktie (doubles your Stache points)
- Drink 7: Game Boy SP Horror (get rare items easier after battles)
The Bean Juice drinks themselves demand specific recipes and reward Mario and Luigi with permanent passive bonuses to certain stats.
| Drink | Recipe | Stat Bonus |
|---|---|---|
| Woohoo Blend | 25 Woo Beans (10 in the remake) | HP+4 (HP+2 in the remake) |
| Hoohoo Blend | 25 Hoo Beans (10 in the remake) | BP+4 (BP+2 in the remake) |
| Chuckle Blend | 25 Chuckle Beans (10 in the remake) | Speed+4 (Speed+2 in the remake) |
| Teehee Blend | 25 Hee Beans (10 in the remake) | Stache+4 (Stache+2 in the remake) |
| Hoolumbian | 15 Woo Beans + 10 Hoo Beans (6 and 4 in the remake, respectively) | POW+4 (POW+2 in the remake) |
| Chuckoccino | 15 Woo Beans + 10 Chuckle Beans (6 and 4 in the remake, respectively) | DEF+4 (DEF+2 in the remake) |
| Teeheespresso | 15 Woo Beans + 10 Hee Beans (6 and 4 in the remake, respectively) | Random stat + 6 (Random stat + 3 in the remake) |
Stats Explained
Stats in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga affect both Mario and Luigi’s attack, defense, speed, and more. Here is an explanation of each stat:
- HP (Heart Point) – Health
- BP (Bros. Point) – Special Ability / Bros. Attack points
- POW – Power / Attack stat
- DEF – Defense stat
- Speed – Speed stat (how fast you can attack)
- Stache – Luck stat (affects critical attack rate and lowers prices of items at stores)
Unlimited Hee Beans
Once you make it to Little Fungitown, you can enter the gaming arcade, which is in the eastern part of town. Go up to the top of the stairs in the arcade. Beat the high score of the game on the right (should be 200). You will win an Invincishroom. Mario will eat it and become sick with the bean fever. The curing plant is found in the Guffawha ruins. After Mario is healed, you can go back to the arcade. Play the same game again and every time you get a nice score (which is easy) you will get up to 9 Hee Beans. Do this until you have 99 beans, go to the beanery, and make yourself some drinks!
